Yemen to Enact Anti-Terror Law
I'd say if somebody needs an anti=terror law, it's probably Yemen...The Yemeni government is planning to pass a law that will deal with the countryâs campaign against terrorism, Justice Minister Adnan Al-Jifri said. He told US Ambassador Edmund J. Hull that his ministry was drafting a âlaw on fighting terrorism in Yemen,â according to Saba news agency. The minister said the new law would include a âprecise definitionâ of terrorism. It would also establish legal procedures for counter-terrorism. Yemen, a close ally with the United States in the fight against terrorism, has been widely criticized by human rights groups for detaining dozens of suspects without trials.
