One of the Islamist militant suicide bombers, who killed 13
people near the main airport in Mogadishu on Tuesday has been identified as a
Somali former MP.
The Islamist militant group named him as Salah Badbado.
The 53-year-old served in Somalia's parliament from 2004
until 2010, when he declared at a press conference he was leaving politics to
join the al-Qaeda-linked group, the AFP reports.
The militant Islamist group, al-Shabab, said it was behind
Tuesday's twin blasts and its target was the African Union force's
headquarters.
