The initial investigation has revealed that the defendant, who is a resident of Al-Baunah in Yemen, works as a laborer and farmer, the official said.
To fulfill the request of a rifle attack attacked in Yemen, his friend Munir Mohammed – who run weapons maintenance workshop there – has offered a 10% commission from the sale of arms spare parts to Abdul Aziz if he obtained these parts from India and sent them to Yemen .
