Three convicted paedophiles have been shot, then hanged in a public square in Yemen after raping and killing a 10-year-old boy.
Reports states that the men had tortured the child before choking him and concealing his body in an abandoned home.
Abdul Jalil al-Ashhab, 19, Mohammed Said al-'Uqri, 27, and Ghaleb al-Rashdi, also 19, were all executed by a firing squad yesterday. Their bodies were then hanged in the city of Sana'a.
They were reportedly shot five times in the heart. Their bodies also were hung from a crane as a warning to others who planned to commit similar crimes.
The men had committed the killing last October. The young boy was abducted while heading to his grandmother's house, then handcuffed and attacked in a nearby school.
