Al Shabab militants in Somalia on 22 December 2020 publicly cut off the right hands of a man after a sharia court convicted him of breaking into a shop and stealing about a 26,000 Somali shilling which is equivalent to one US dollar.
The man identified as Mukhtar Muhidin confessed to the theft in the Adan Yabal district of the Lower Shabelle region and was ordered to refund the money.
Lower Shabelle is an administrative region in southern Somalia.
