Article-Summary: 

Local Somalian campaigners, backed by Amnesty International, have demanded that Somalia's new government, which is expected to be set up in weeks, formulate measures to ensure that warlords who have violated human rights since the fall of the Siad Barre in 1991 are brought to justice. One proposed measure is the formation of a South Africa-like truth commission.
