A car bomb attack in the Somali capital Mogadishu has killed a Turkish citizen, police said on Sunday.
The man was killed when explosives fitted to his car exploded on Sunday, police told dpa.
"A Turkish a civil engineer was mercilessly blown up in his car near KM4 street," said police spokesman Ali Hassan.
It was unclear who planted the bomb, but the police suspect militant group al-Shabaab, they said.
On Saturday, the group claimed responsibility for a roadside bombing targeting a local government official in the port city of Bosaso. Eight people were killed in the incident.
Terror group al-Shabaab has fought the Somali army and African Union peacekeeping troops for over a decade.
The al-Qaeda-linked group was driven out of Mogadishu in 2011, but still controls large swathes of remote areas in the south and centre of the country.
