Citizens find murdered man’s body in Mukala

HADRAMOUT, Sept. 12 (YPA) – Citizens found a dead body of a young man named Mohammed Jaafar Lahmadi on Wednesday night in the outskirts of Mukala city, the capital city of Hadramout province, eastern Yemen.

Lahmadi’s family has lost contact with him since last Sunday, sources close to the dead man said.

Mohammed Jaafar is a taxi driver and works on the road from Bin Eifan area to Doan area, west of Hadramout valley. His father died Tuesday after he heard news about the kidnapping of his son.

Murders and assassinations are widespread in Hadramout province after the formation of the UAE-backed militia, or the so-called Hadramiya elite forces in 2016.
