Alleged Somali war criminal has been driving for Uber, Lyft in Virginia washex.am/2vUBhng
Yusuf Abdi Ali, also known as “Colonel Tukeh,” has been working full time for the companies and is an “Uber Pro Diamond” driver with a 4.89 rating.
Ali is accused of committing war crimes in the 1980s while serving as a military commander under then-Somali leader Mohamed Siad Barre.
A documentary by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation featured eyewitnesses who claim that he was known to have directed brutal torture and executions.
“Two men were caught, tied to a tree. Oil was poured on them and they were burnt alive. I saw it with my own eyes. I cut away their remains,” a witness said in the documentary.
Ali is also facing a federal civil suit brought by Farhan Mohamoud Tani Warfaa, 1 of his alleged victims. Warfaa alleges Ali tortured, shot him, and ordered guards to bury his body, but that guards realized he survived and accepted a bribe from Warfaa’s family to release him.
