Mocha, Newsyemen, private:
A young man died in an attack bomb explosion Thursday morning, while he was trying to throw it away from the crowds while participating in a marriage ceremony in a rural area in Mocha.
A local source said that the 28-year-old, Abdo Saad Haja, wanted to detonate the offensive bomb at the wedding ceremony, which is a practice followed in some areas, but he was unable to release his finger from the detonation key.
The source added that the bomb exploded directly in the victim's body, which led to his death on the spot.
Pictures of the accident showed the young man lying on the ground, with blood covering the upper half of his body.
The parents expressed their deep sorrow for the tragedy that befell the young man, who wanted to celebrate the wedding of his friend's marriage in his own way, but he was the victim of the dire accident.
The wedding that was being celebrated in Al-Bana village, north of Aljumah, turned into a grief and tragedy throughout the rural village.
Many participants in weddings in rural areas are keen to fire live ammunition as an expression of their joy at the wedding, while others go to throwing grenades, which often turns those weddings into bloody scenes.
The people of Al-Jumah village, had expressed earlier this year, that they are annoyed by the method of shooting at weddings, and demanded an end to it.
