[AnNahar] Al-Qaeda gunnies have killed two people in southeast Yemen because they believed they were practicing witchcraft and sorcery, which are forbidden under Islam, a security official told Agence La Belle France Presse on Sunday."Hah! Youse cannot kill me! I am invisible!"
"I can still see you."
"I meant invincible!"
The killings took place late on Saturday in the town of Shehr in Hadramawt province, the official said.
"[Gasp!] [Groan!] ... See? I'm not dead! I'm merely... merely... rosebud!"
"Al-Qaeda gunnies on a cycle of violence opened fire on Omar Abdelhafiz, killing him immediately," the official said.
"Lookitdat! The wizard caught the bullet with his teeth!"
"I think he swallowed it wrong, though..."
Several hours later, two other gunnies killed another Shehr resident, hairdresser Saeed al-Hadrami, the source added.
"They killed hairdresser Saeed al-Hadrami? But... but... I had an appointment with him on Tuesday!"
Jihadists had several times threatened both men, accusing them of "practicing witchcraft and sorcery", the official said.
"It took a lot of goats sacrificed to Shaitain to make Fatima look presentable!"
