GAROWE, Somalia Aug. 14, 2013 (Garowe Online) –Residents in Hasbahale village, which situates 80 KMs away from Puntland’s coastal town of Eyl have seized a man suspected of being Al Shabaab member on Wednesday, Garowe Online reports.

Speaking on Puntland-based independent station, Radio Garowe, the Deputy Mayor of Eyl District, Faisal Khalif Waeys said the seized ‘Al Shabaab suspect’ was accompanied by two men who escaped before being captured him by the villagers.

“After long trip from faraway vicinity, he seemed tired and weak but shortly after the people captured him, he was handed over to local police forces,” added Mr. Waeys.

The Al Shabaab suspect, who is believed to come from Somalia’s southern part, was transported to Puntland capital of Garowe for interrogation.

Puntland government previously waged numerous military offensives against Al Shabaab fighters, who are hiding out in Golis Mountains and destroyed underground cells in urban areas, according to security officials.

Following, the dissension, splitting and leadership wrangles, which continue to spread within Al Shabaab ranks, Puntland put its security sector on standby and high alert for possible infiltration into Puntland regions by Al Shabaab fugitives.
