A military court in Somalia's semi-autonomous region of Puntland
sentenced four men to death for their links to al-Shabab. Two other men are sentenced to life imprisonment. In 2013, Puntland military courts executed 13 individuals for links to al-Shabab and for orchestrating the assassination of a famous scholar.
In March 2014,
Human Rights Watch released
a report documenting violations of basic fair trial rights of defendants tried before Somali military courts.
