A Yemeni court last week sentenced to death the killer of the Dutch expert, John Dairak Paul and the chairman of small enterprises, Mohammed Ali Haider, four months ago.  

The killer, Abdulrahman Ibrahim Aljedi, has already confessed the murder during the sessions held in the court. The killer claimed to have had killed the two for the sake of 'Jehad' (Islamic holy war) and that the Dutch expert was a disbeliever who used to spread infidel beliefs. However, he said that he killed the manager of the project, as he did not heed his pieces of advice to return to Allah. Ridiculously enough, he called upon the judge to acquit him, the paper said. 

However, the judge stated that the Islam does not approve the killing of non-Muslims living on Islamic territories – Albawaba.com
