BREDA - De in Breda woonachtige Somalische journalist Dahir Alasow wordt in een video op Youtube bedreigd met de dood. Vanwege die veiligheidsdreiging heeft de rechtbank in Breda een kort geding dat woensdag zou dienen tegen de Bredanaar uitgesteld.
Als je nu niet stopt, gaan we je vermoorden
Alasow woont sinds 2007 als erkend politiek vluchteling in Nederland. In 2011 werd Alasow ook al bedreigd. Toen zou er 100.000 euro op z'n hoofd zijn gezet. Volgens zijn advocate destijds, kwam die bedreiging vanuit Al-Shabaab.
Terreurorganisaties
Alasow schrijft veel over de Somalische bank Dahabshiil. Die zou volgens hem terreurorganisaties Al-Shabaab en Al Qaeda financieren en aanzetten tot moord en onderdrukking. De journalist publiceert in het Engels op diverse internetmedia.
Bronnen van Alasow schrijven in verklaringen, die in bezit zijn van BN DeStem, dat ze in de gevangenis in Mogadishu zijn gemarteld. Hen werd daar te verstaan gegeven nooit meer samen te werken met Alasow. Die verklaringen wilden ze desgevraagd onder ede herhalen tijdens het kort geding.

Ik weet waar jullie wonen. Alasow, ik weet bij welk restaurant je je thee drinkt. Als je nu niet stopt, gaan we je vermoorden.''
