Somalia Urgently Recalls Its Somaliland-Origin Ambassador to India: Reports
Diplomat Abdirahman Odawa has been ordered to return to Mogadishu no later than Monday, media reported. The Somali Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been officially notified of his recall. The decision comes amid Israel's recognition of Somaliland's independence.
The ambassador is reportedly accused of facilitating direct relations between Somaliland and India, as well as of activities outside the diplomatic mandate granted to him by the federal government, and allegedly related to his region of origin.
In parallel, the Somali presidential administration has launched an investigation of other ambassadors serving abroad who originate from Somaliland.
