The Human Rights League of the Horn of Africa (HRLHA) is highly concerned about the safety of nine Oromo refugees from Ethiopia whose whereabouts are not known since they were extra-judicially arrested and taken away by members of the Djibouti force in Djibouti on different occasions in the months of November and December 2010, and January 2011.

Mr. Jundi Bakar Ahmad (a father of 7), Mr. Mohammad Aliyyi Mummad, Mr. Ahmad Mohammad Sa’id, Mr. Umar Ibrahim Yussuf, Mr. Ali Ahmad Mohammad, and Mr. Anwar Jamaal were all arrested by a joint force of Djibouti Police and Ethiopian security agents on December 22, 2010 in Djibouti at a place called Nagar Ambouli Sortie. Prior to that, Mr. Ibrahim Hussien, Mustafa Muktar (very young and age 16), and Mr. Kadir Umar were arrested in the same way on November 25, 2010; and their whereabouts are not known since then.Read More
