just like bantus were brought into somalia by italians, no brainer

You seriously need to read some history! The Bantus were brought in as slaves by the Omanis, and later as slaves freed along the East African coast by the British.

It is forbidden for Muslims to enslave Muslims. Thats why the Omanis went into mozambiquen interior tribes and captured pagans.

LOOOL many things are forbiden yet people still do it..

by constituation/law was banned 1971- took affective 1973. they give the people who still have slaves 3 years to release them or free them..

There are still legal slave markets in Mauretania and the Sudan. Amnesty International has long claimed the slave laws are not enforced behind the walls of the compounds in KSA.
