A written intervention on human rights violations by the Somali security forces

Submitted to: Human Rights Council, 40th Session.

Concerning: The third item / interactive dialogue with the Special Rapporteur on Somalia.

Maat Foundation for Peace, Development and Human Rights (Egypt) presents this intervention on the security situation in Somalia in general, which is witnessing a clear decline in the Somali government's ability to effectively control the security situation, threatening its sovereignty. Despite international and regional efforts to support the Somali government to confront these security threats, Somalia has not yet arrived, despite the passage of many years for a unified national army, and all these efforts are wasted, under allegations of wholesale corruption that permeates the government apparatus in general and the security apparatus in particular..
