Somali PM links murder to "international terror"
By Guled Mohamed

BAIDOA, Somalia (Reuters) - Somalia's prime minister on Saturday accused Libya, Egypt, Iran and Eritrea of fomenting extremism in his country, and said the killers of a cabinet minister had links with "international terrorists."

His comments came after hundreds of mourners attended the funeral of Constitution and Federalism Minister Abdallah Deerow Isaq, who was gunned down outside a mosque in the latest flare-up of violence in the Horn of Africa nation.
