Somali President's Son Convicted in Turkey for Fatal Crash, Avoids Jail

The son of Somalia's president, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, was convicted of "reckless killing" in a collision that killed a motorcycle courier in Istanbul, but was spared jail time and instead fined 27,300 Turkish Liras. The victim's family dropped their formal complaint against Mohamud, and his driver's license will be cancelled for six months. This case, along with another involving the son of a former Yemeni defense minister, has raised questions about fairness in the Turkish justice system.
