Italian authorities raided SYL headquarters and canceled its rental contract in 1952
Evidence
On August 3, 1952, Italian carabinieri raided SYL headquarters and searched the resi- dences of Abdullahi Issa and Sheikh Issa Mohamed, two senior CC members. Two days later, the administration told the party to vacate its headquarters by prematurely canceling its rental contract without any basis. The contract was signed in 1947. — Abdi Ismail Samatar, Africa’s First Democrats, 1244
