Security source: Briton missing in Yemen, possibly kidnapped

None

A British teacher has been reported missing in the Yemeni capital Sanaa, a Yemeni security source said Thursday, suggesting he may have been kidnapped.

 

The source said a woman had reported to a local police station that her husband, a Briton who teaches English at a language centre in Sanaa, had not returned home on Wednesday night.

 

The source said police were investigating and did not rule out the possibility that the man might have been abducted.

 

A British Foreign Office spokesman said: "We are aware of reports and are making inquiries locally." (Reuters)
