Somali journalist held over rape report freed

  • 11 years ago
A Somali journalist imprisoned for interviewing a woman who said she was raped by security forces has been released.
Earlier this month Abdiaziz Abdinur Ibrahim's sentence was reduced. 
The woman he interviewed was released from prison after also serving part of a prison term. 
Ibrahim's release comes after Somalia's attorney-general ruled investigators in the original case had misled the court. 
Al Jazeera's Peter Greste reports.
