HADRAMOUT- Sept. 30- A group of unidentified men bombed on Tuesday the car of a German citizen and set his house ablaze in Mukalla. He works in Yemen as the General Manager of the Middle East Social cooperation Society (MESCS).

A security source told al-Shura Newspaper that the unidentified men also sent a threatening letter, demanding his departure from the governorate.

The source confirmed that the letter reads: “Today we burnt your house and bombed your car and tomorrow we will murder your children unless you leave the governorate of Hadramout. This letter is from a Muslim, jealous of his religion”. The source said that there is no confirmation whether the bombers belong to a terrorist group.

The source affirmed that the perpetrators accused the German of belonging to a missionary group that sent him to Yemen in order to Christianize Muslims. He also affirmed that it is the first time terrorists assault foreigners in Hadramout.

The source said this attack was launched after an unknown person hurled a bombe before one of the buildings in the governorate. However, nobody was held accountable for the blast.
