<p>National television journalist Hindiyo Haji Mohamed was killed in December when her car blew up as she returned home from a university class in Mogadishu.<br />
Ms Mohamed&#8217;s late husband also worked as a journalist with the same television station and was tragically killed in a suicide attack on a Mogadishu restaurant in 2012.<br />
&#8216;Hindiyo died at the hospital of the serious injuries she sustained, we are very sorry about her death,&#8217; Abdirahin Ise Ado, director of Radio Mogadishu, said at the time.<br />
The military court recently rejected an appeal by the men &#8211; and increased their sentence from life imprisonment to execution.<br />

<strong>A small group of locals help carry away the two dead bodies, wrapped in large white sheets</strong></h5>
<p>The Reporters Without Borders press freedom campaign group ranks Somalia 172nd out of 180 countries for press freedom. Mohamed was the 38th journalist killed doing his job in the country since 2010, the group says. al-Shabaab rebels have carried out repeated attacks in Somalia and neighbouring Kenya as part of their fight to overthrow the country&#8217;s internationally-backed government, as well as the African Union troops supporting it, which include Kenyan soldiers.</p>
