I don't have the details but he had bodyguards in the hotel and some of his relatives were defending him hard. Somaliland commander said they could not shoot because it was in the middle of the city market, it was populated.

Here is Summary of what happened today: - Someone called Buraale who is in Buuhoodle claimed the responsibility of yesterday's attack in Lasanod. - Somaliland forces moved to arrest the guy today who was residing in a hotel inside the town's main market. - There was a defense from his side and some fired at the Somaliland forces defending the terrorist who was hiding in the hotel. - Demonstration followed the fire exchange by some civilians and three persons were injured. - The terrorist escaped with his bodyguards to unknown places probably outside the city.

Still the investigations are ongoing ...... All they wanted was to get a violent reaction from Somaliland forces so that innocent people are killed, arrested or tortured. Somaliland should deal with this carefully and wisely as usual.

Las Anod, 1 November 2009 (Somalilandpress) – A roadside bomb killed one military official and wounded four early Sunday morning in the Eastern town of Las Anod. Mr. Osman Yusuf, the commander of Somaliland’s 12th infantry division was the intended target, he was instantly killed. The four injured, two military personnel and two bystanders were also rushed to local hospitals and are said to be in an stable condition. An eye witness from the city told Somalilandpress, two remotely controlled bombs were used in the attack, first one missing its intended target – second blast causing all the damages. Somaliland police have been put on high alert and reinforcements are said to be on their way to the city to take part in the investigation. There is no official statement from the government and there is no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast but Somalia’s Al Qaeda linked hardline group, Al shabaab is believed to be behind the attack while many suspect militias loyal to the Puntland state could also be behind. Puntland and Somaliland have fought over the control of Las Anod in many occassions and in the past radical militia loyal to Puntland have carried out similar attacks. The attack comes two days after Al shabaab threatened to attack Somaliland and other countries in the Horn of Africa including Uganda and Kenya. On Thursday, Somaliland marked one year since deadly blasts rocked the capital, Hargeisa, that left 24 people killed and more than 30 others wounded.

“Waxaan u sheegaynaa cadowga Somaliland in ciidamada qalabka Sida ee Somaliland inay diyaar u yihiin inay shacbigooda difaacaan, shacabka waxaanu uga digaynaa inaanay dadka cadowga Somaliland ahi inaanay ku soo dhex dhuuman,”ayuu yidhi Wasiirku Gaashaandhigu.
