Propaganda Slammed
The Government of Puntland State of Somalia has categorically rejected press reports that it claims are “propaganda”.
The FT report, entitled “Britons held as ransom drop goes wrong,” insinuated that foreigners arrested at Mogadishu’s international airport for transporting ransom money intended to travel to Galkayo, Puntland’s southern city.
They stressed that no ransom payment travels ever through Puntland.
