NISA posted a video clip of the singer confessing to Al-Shabaab membership and said the suspect will soon be arraigned in court.
Mr. Ahmed who is a member of a local music band in Banadir, says in the clip that he was working with the terror group on Intelligence and finances.

Alshabaab however released a statement denying the claims of the intelligence agency, saying the man in question is not one of them.
Somali security agencies have of late arrested some high profile persons on grounds of working and or helping Al-Shabaab. 
There are a number of notable figures who were on the government’s payroll but actually worked for Al-shabaab.
Some of those convicted include A district commissioner, Inteligence officer, College lecturer, a member of parliament and of course that Regional official (the woman who was working in the office of Mogadishu mayor), who later on carried out a suicide attack inside the mayor’s compound killing the mayor himself and dozens of others.
