The man was killed in Barawe town on the southern Somali coastline by pirates who had taken him hostage and wanted him to go onshore from his yacht in which he was sailing with others, including a woman and a boy. His nationality was not immediately clear. "He was shot and killed after he refused to disembark from his yacht and move onshore in Baraawe town," Ali Shuke, a resident in Baraawe town said. "The man died instantly and the gunmen took the other hostages onshore. The woman and a boy were taken to jungle areas near the town." The hostages' yacht was adrift on the coast, residents said. Somali pirates hijack vessels on the Indian Ocean, take them to the Somali coast and hold them until money is paid, but the killing of hostages is rare. Andrew Mwangura, the head of a regional maritime group based in Kenya's port city of Mombasa, said the yacht, which was hijacked last Monday near Lamu on Kenya's coast, was anchored along Somali's coastline near Barawe. "What I know is there was a yacht spotted by local people in southern Somalia, and we are trying to investigate reports of hostages and to verify their nationality," Mwangura, coordinator of the East African Seafarers Assistance Programme, said. Al Shabaab, an al Qaeda-linked rebel group, controls Barawe on the southern coast of the anarchic Horn of Africa nation that has been mired in violence and is awash with weapons since the overthrow of dictator Siad Barre in 1991. A spokesman for al Shabaab had said the man was South African. South Africa's department of international relations and cooperation said in a statement, however, that he was not a South African citizen. The pirates had said last week that the hostages were British. The British foreign office has said only that it had heard of the reports of the hijacking, and was investigating. The U.N.-backed administration of President Sheikh Sharif Ahmed controls just a few blocks of the capital. (Writing by James Macharia; editing by Myra MacDonald) World Comments See All Comments (3) | Post Comment Nov 07, 2010 1:53pm EST Unless the nations of Africa get together and act as a unified force against pirates, to isolate or destroy them, this will spread to other African nations and the result will be anarchy. They thrive in anarchy, because power and money rule, not law. Now is the time for unity against them or wait and face a similar action, as they gain strength and power, to build an army to conquer Africa. But, who is the puppetmaster, that they serve? Iran, Libya? Saudi? China, so they can steal the resources of Africa, by keeping the African nations in a constant state of fear. Unified African nations can survive, but divided, they will fall. burkes Report As Abusive Nov 07, 2010 2:06pm EST Just like going to Mexico in this day and age if your going to be in harms way in an area where pirates or cartels operate then it is logical “SH*T” is going to likely happen. So you stay away. That way you have a better chance to survive. As much as I feel bad about this man being killed I cannot imagine what was going thru his head that being in the area known for pirate attacks how he would magically escape any chance of being hijacked. LeeInOceanside Report As Abusive Nov 07, 2010 2:26pm EST it , is decades past time for an international force to take control of the Somali area and create a policed condition, it probably needs to be broken up into many nations to bring normalcy of human conditions.there is no excuse worth listening too to not end this lawless territorial system. it must remain in place despite any objections from within the former nation. bullypulpiteer Report As Abusive See All Comments (3) Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
