After being slaughtered, Yamal's father speaks for the first time

Mounir Nasraui, 35, was rushed to the hospital after being attacked in the Spanish town of Mataro, north of Barcelona.

According to La Vanguardia, he is believed to have entered a debate with some people in the area while walking his dog before a fight broke out, and Nasrawou received some stab wounds.

Since then, three people have been arrested by Spanish police, charged with attempted murder, and they have confirmed that a fourth has also been arrested.

Yamal's father has shared an update on his status on the social networking app, Instagram.

Thank you all for the encouragement, now I'm better,” he posted. “A big hug for all”, he wrote.
