Yemen Police Shoot Dead Killer of Frenchman
2014-05-08
[An Nahar] Yemeni security forces on Wednesday rubbed out the head of the "terror cell" behind the killing of a Frenchie in Sanaa earlier this week, the country's supreme security committee said.

Wael Abdullah Masood al-Waeli, "who supervised the killing of the French citizen," was killed in a clash with security forces in the capital, the committee said.

Another member of the cell was also rubbed out while a third was tossed in the clink
Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please!
, it said, according to Saba state news agency.

The Frenchie was killed on Monday and another was maimed when gunnies shot up their car in Sanaa's diplomatic district. Both worked for a private security firm that officials said was guarding the EU delegation in Yemen.

Yemen's top security body said police had traced Waeli and other gunnies on Tuesday to a house in Sanaa, but they refrained from storming the hideout "because there were women and kiddies."

Police closed in on the gunnies when they left the house, but fighting erupted as the suspects resisted arrest, it said.

Waeli was also behind the kidnapping of a Dutch journalist and his wife, who were held captive for six months before they were released in December.
