Judge hurt in blast

SANAA MAY 14. A Yemeni judge was injured today in a small blast at a courtroom, where earlier this week a man was sentenced to death for murdering an American missionary doctor and two of her colleagues. The extent of the judge's injuries was not immediately known.

Earlier this week, Abed Abdel Razzak Kamel was sentenced to death after he confessed to killing three Christian missionaries to get closer to God and to take revenge on Christians and Americans.
