Fun kidnappings in Yemen?

On August 14 Yemeni tribesmen kidnapped an Italian tourist group consisting of 10 persons, one of them a nine year-old boy, when they were on their way to Mukalla, on the Gulf of Aden.

The Yemeni tribesmen have taken to abducting foreigners to use as bargaining chips in their many disputes with the present government.

One Italian tourist-also kidnapped few days ago by a Yemini tribe, then released-reportedly said "I very much enjoyed the experience."
