Al-Dhalea: A father ends the life of his mentally ill son because he is unable to treat him

In a terrifying incident, a father in the Jahaf area of Al Dhalea committed a very heinous crime a day ago after killing his young son due to his inability to bear the costs of his treatment, as the young man suffers from a chronic psychological illness.
According to a local source for Aden Al-Ghad newspaper, the father committed the heinous act with the help of one of his sons.
The sources indicated that the family had been treating their young son suffering from mental illness for years, to no avail, before the father committed this crime under the pretext of his inability to bear the disorders of his sick son.
The rate of psychological cases in Yemen has increased over the past years due to war conditions and the high cost of living.
