Somalia President accepts Islamic Sharia law

President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, the president of Somalia, has accepted Islamic Sharia law for his country.

President Sharif accepted the terms of strict, Sharia law into the country after settling on a truce with local Islamic groups.

He would not discuss details of the truce with reporters, but said he agreed to the truce after at least 30 people were killed in the capital last week in clashes between Islamist group and government and African Union forces.
