| Spanish Police Officer Found Dead in Yemen, Website |

| [Yemen Post] The Spanish police officer, who went missing in Yemen last Thursday, was found dead in the capital Sanaa on Tuesday, Alsahwa reported, quoting well-informed sources. "The policeman was found dead after noon in Venue 50th in the Hadda district and a firearm was found near him," the sources said, according to the website. The news came a day after a jacket wallah went kaboom!" at a military parade rehearsal in Sanaa killing more than one hundred central security forces and injuring hundreds others. A krazed killer group has grabbed credit for the attack, saying it was a payback for the US war on faceless myrmidons in south Yemen. Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, AQAP, has recently kidnapped several foreigners including a Swiss woman and the Saudi consul in Aden, amid an intensified offensive against faceless myrmidons in the south. The US and tribal fighters are supporting the army in fighting faceless myrmidons in southern and southeastern regions, mainly in Abyan ...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirateafter seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same. Yemeni government forces launched an effort to re-establish control of the region when President-for-Life Saleh was tossed and the carnage continues... However, a poor excuse is better than no excuse at all... none of the hostages have been reported dead and AQAP has not threatened to harm them. The Yemeni authorities were reported to have been negotiating with the faceless myrmidons to release the foreigners, but no progress has been reported. Last Thursday, the Spanish Foreign Ministry said the police officer, within the staff at the Spanish Embassy in Sana'a, went missing and inquiries were launched into his disappearance. Also, a brother of the victim said the officer had been kidnapped and his family had been unable to contact him, the website said. The officer worked at his country's mission in Yemen for the past two years, it said. |
