The image here is permissible to use  . 

There is more than enough proof here to maintain that it is indeed Godane and portrays the person who it is intended to portray. As per the sources cited by , () the onus of proof is on anyone else to provide sources which discredit the POV held by the United States State Department, BBC, Reuters and CNN that the image is Godane. The fact that the image is featured on the Rewards for Justice website is already adequate enough proof, the U.S State Department being one of the most premier sources for counter-terrorism. This is no stab in the dark. It's not like this image has been randomly found on the internet with the caption 'Ahmed Abdi Godane' below it. Reputable sources state that the image is Godane, as per WP:V. If you challenge this assertion, either cite some sources which explicitly disprove this or deal with it. It is as simple as that.
