Dangers of life as a journalist in Somalia

Somali TV journalist Abdulkadir Omar Abdulle has been seriously wounded in the line of duty. He says journalists are the most vulnerable people in Somalia, and that groups often target journalists who file stories they see as negative, thinking they are filing in support of their rivals. To mark World Press Freedom Day, Abdulkadir tells his story.
