Saleh: Woman Sent Terror Packages and Police Surround Sana'a House
[Yemen Post] President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh said on Saturday the police is surrounding a house in the capital Sana'a where the suspect involved in sending Friday's terror packages on U.S.-bound flights, which triggered a state of high alert at U.S. and UK airports, is hiding.At a presser in Sana'a, Saleh said a woman sent the packages through Yemen onboard cargo planes including one that made a stopover in London. I called British Prime Minister David Cameron and we agreed to form a joint panel to investigate the incident, he told news hounds, at a time when the west's concerns about Al-Qaeda in Yemen are growing. Yemen will continue the war on terrorism with available national potentials, he said, reiterating Yemen's refusal to any external intervention in the terror operations on the Yemeni soil. Meanwhile, ...back at the ranch... sources at the Yemen offices of the UPS and FedEx Companies said the Yemeni police confiscated today other suspicious packages and are examining them. The police are investigating about 26 more packages and have already jugged some workers of the companies in connection with all packages, the sources said. They, however, did not give names involved in the alleged plots, as they said Yemen's anti-terror efforts are applauded and come within the global terror campaign. Posted by: Fred 2010-10-31 |
