An official with the Yemen's Interior Ministry was assassinated Sunday by unknown assailants in the central Yemeni province of Ibb, a security source said.
"Unknown gunmen shot the head of Ibb's criminal investigation division, Col. Ali al-Hakmi, as he was walking on a street in Ibb," a security source, who requested anonymity, told The Anadolu Agency.
Yemeni authorities have yet to comment on the incident.
Yemen has been dogged by turmoil since pro-democracy protests in 2011 forced autocratic president Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down after 33 years in power.
Throughout this year, scores of security personnel have been killed in attacks across the country, which officials blame on suspected Al-Qaeda-linked militants.
