| 2010-03-08 |
| An Al-Qaeda militant killed a police guard and seriously wounded another on Sunday as he tried to escape from custody in a Yemeni hospital, the defence ministry said. "Guards at Sanaa's Republican Hospital foiled a bid by an Al-Qaeda member involved in several terrorist attacks who was hospitalised for several days," the ministry's 26sep.net website said a statement. "He managed to get hold of the weapon of one of his guards as he was helping him to the toilet, and opened fire on him and on another guard," the statement said. The suspect was identified as "the terrorist Sharif Mobayli," a German citizen of Somali origin who had been hospitalised for unspecified health problems, a medical official was quoted as saying. |
