Dad smiles as monster who raped and killed his daughter is ‘pumped full of bullets’
A dad says that he smiled and was filled with “relief and satisfaction” as the pedophile who raped and killed his three-year-old daughter was “pumped full of bullets.”
Yahya Almatari stood at the front of a crowd of thousands to watch the monster shot at point blank range with an AK-47.
His 41-year-old neighbor Muhammed al-Maghrabi was convicted by a Sharia court in Yemen of raping and throttling little Rana Almatari after snatching her off the street.
Almatari told the MailOnline: “I feel as if I have been reborn. This is the first day of my life. I am relieved now.”
“I watched my daughter Rana’s killer being executed in Tahrir Square in Sana’a then I went with the men of my family and neighbors and some of the people in the crowd to the hospital where Rana was in the morgue.”
“My wife Jamileh and I are grateful to God. Justice and the ruling of Allah have been done.”
Images showed the execution of the pedophile who raped and murdered the three-year-old girl.
Thousands of people gathered in the rebel-held Yemeni capital of Sana’a to witness – and take photos of – the public execution.

The gruesome crime coincided with the first day of Eid al-Fitr, the Muslim holiday that marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, and sparked anger among the population.
Maghrabi was first given 100 lashes and then made to lie flat, his face on the ground, and killed by multiple gunshots by security forces – to cheers from the crowd.

Police said they escorted Maghrabi to Tahrir Square where he was executed amid fears the angry crowd could lynch him.
The public execution was widely aired on Huthi-run media in Yemen, framed as an example of the Shiite rebels’ efforts to combat crime in their areas.
The Iran-backed Huthis have been locked in a war with Yemen’s Saudi Arabia-backed internationally-recognised government of President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi for two years.
More than 8,000 people have been killed and millions displaced in the conflict, while nearly 2,000 have died of cholera since April.
The United Nations has described Yemen as “the largest humanitarian crisis in the world,” with 10 million civilians in acute need of life-saving aid as the country teeters on the edge of famine.
