A Houthi militant killed his father and mutilated his body in north Yemen on Sunday evening local sources have said, without mentioning a specific reason.
The bigoted Shiit Ahmed Mohammed Hassan Abu Ras, in his twenties, reportedly shot dead his father after the Ishaa (Dusk) Prayer in Bani Hafaj village in Qays district of Hajjah province before dragging and mutilating his body causing a massive shock and sadness within the local community.
North Yemen, under the control of Houthis, is seeing a remarkably increasing rate of murdering near relatives especially fathers these days as young men are taking sectarian radicalization courses in schools run by the Shiit Houthi militia.
This is the third crime of its kind within a week. Two similar murders took place in Amran and Arhab regions.
