Mogadishu, Ramadan 10, 1437, June 15, 2016, SPA -- The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) said Wednesday it was investigating allegations that it had tried to send expired and damaged food to needy people in south-western Somalia, according to dpa. Senior police officer Abdullahi Barise had earlier said the authorities had Tuesday seized a plane about to take off from the capital Mogadishu to the town of Garbahaarey, because the 100 sacks of food on board included items that had expired. Cooking oil had an expiry date in 2015, while locally produced maize, beans and sorghum had gone bad after being held in a Mogadishu warehouse, Barise said --SPA 00:25 LOCAL TIME 21:25 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
