BCCP PRESS RELEASE
BAY CENTRE FOR CONFLICT PREVENTION (BCCP)

Kismayo City, Southern Somalia, August 7th , 2001

PRESS RELEASE
BCFCP/INF/BS20/M8/2001

Arta Group Participate in Somalia's Civil War

Kismayo City, August 7th, 2001 – "Bay Centre for Conflict Prevention" (BCCP) – According the Centre’s monitoring team, deliberate offensive attacks by the militiamen loyal to the Arta Group, the so-called Somali Transitional Government built at Arta City, have created untold hardships among civilian populations in southern port town of Kismayo, as it captured the Port City of Kismayo today.

Yesterday, the Arta Groups has intensively supplied military equipment, medicine and mobilised more than 400 of its Mogadishu-based militiamen from Mogadishu to Kismayo City, with the aim of re-enforcing its dismissed alliance forces from the City and deliberately hiding the facts on human rights abuse by its militiamen in southern Somalia.

A businessman contacted in Kimayo city by VHF radio from Nairobi City, confirmed inhuman treatment in the city and said that the operations by the militiamen of Arta Group and its alliance were mainly aimed at massacring civilians suspected of supporting the former militia of previous city administration and at pillaging their properties. More than 300 civilian people have been massacred by the Arta group’s militiamen in the city since last night.

Meanwhile, Kismayo City of southern Somalia is occupied by the leader of Arta group’s sub-clan, Ayr clan, which dispersed the previous administration of the city yesterday.

The Arta Groupis systematically diverted from its main core of establishment, namely reconciliation among people, peace and stability promotion, and creation of fair society in Somalia.

The Centre urges the Arta group (Transitional Government) and its alliance in Kismayo City to respect the rights of civilians and desist from willful targeting of civilian populations in the City.

The Centre condemns inhuman treatment by the militiamen against civilian populations. The Centre sends clear message to the Arta Group and their alliance who are collectively committing crimes against humanity in Kismayo City of southern Somalia. Each of them is not immune from prosecution now and in the future.

The Centre's officials are closely continuing to monitor events in the port city of Kismayo including changes in command of militiamen.
