Unidentified gunmen have attack Somali owned shop in South Africa, killing a Somali nationals, the latest string of killings of foreign traders.
The attack took place on Saturday night in Durban town of Kwazulu Natal region. The victim were identified as Elmi Mohamed Dagole.
According to Somali traders in South Africa, the gunmen stormed the shop while disguising customers and subsequently started shooting at the victim. No arrest was made so far by South Africa Police.
South Africans often accuse foreigners of taking their jobs, a reason they often use to justify attacks against foreigners in South Africa.
For years, South African police have been accused of being complicit in attacks against immigrants, something that prompted many immigrants including Somalis to possess illegal arms in a desperate attempt to defend themselves and their properties against gangs.
Dozens of Somalis have been killed in South Africa for the past few years.
Many of them have had their businesses robbed and seriously wounded.
