Somali woman killed for not wearing veil, relatives say
Militant Islamists in Somalia have shot dead a Muslim woman for refusing to wear a veil, her relatives say.
The nomadic woman was killed outside her hut near the southern Somali town of Hosingow by gunmen belonging to the al-Shabab group, they added.
The militants had ordered her to put on a veil, and then killed her after returning and finding she was still not wearing one, the relatives said.
An al-Shabab spokesman denied the group had killed the woman.
