Abdullahi Mire Hashi was gunned down by at least two men on October 27, 2018, in the town of Elisha Bihaya, about 17 km from the Somali capital Mogadishu, according to reports.
The radio journalist was a producer and show host on the privately owned religious station Darul Sunnah.
According to reports, he was shot after attending afternoon prayers at a mosque near his radio station. Abdullahi was “shot twice on the head by unidentified men with pistols,” said a report by HRJ.
The gunmen fled the scene immediately after the attack and Abdullahi died on the way to the hospital after sustaining injuries to his head and his chest.
Local journalists have said Abdullahi had received anonymous phone calls questioning why his station was not broadcasting the militant group Al-Shabaab’s operations in the region.
No one has been arrested as of December 2018 in connection to Abdullahi’s murder.
