Demands to hand over son of military commander
[Yemen Post] Yemen's interior ministry has demanded to swiftly hand over a son of a military commander who is charged with killing a policeman and wounding three others. The ministry requested to hand over the son of Murad al-Awbali, a commander of the Republican Guard 62th Brigade, expressing its surprise as some authorities operate to hide criminals and killers. Security sources said that three defendants were handed over and that the main defendant, Mohammad al-Awabli, is still on the lam. Murad Al-Awbali, a loyalist to former president President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... and his son Ahmed, is accused of committing crimes against protesters in the southern province of Taiz. Taiz protesters demonstrated repeatedly, demanding to hold al-Awbali accountable. He was appointed Ahmed Saleh as a commander of the 62 brigade by after the protests calling for his arrest and prosecutions increased. President Abdurabu Mansour Hadi ...the second and possibly the last president of Yemen, successor to former President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh... replaced about high-ranking generals of Saleh's relatives and loyalists in a bid to implement reforms in the army, but the well-equipped military units, the Republican Guard, are still run by Saleh's son, Ahmed. After carrying out reforms in army and security services, the Yemeni army could defeat al-Qaeda in some districts of Abyan ...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirateafter seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same. Yemeni government forces launched an effort to re-establish control of the region when President-for-Life Saleh was tossed and the carnage continues... governorate. Meanwhile, ...back at the pie fight, Bella opened her mouth at precisely the wrong moment... Yemen's security authorities have stated that they have taken tight security measures in the capital Sana'a in anticipation of any violence acts in Eid al-Adha, a Moslem religious holiday. Fears are raised among population of Yemen that violence acts may break out in Eid Al-Adha, a Moslem religious holiday, particularly as Yemeni analysts anticipated that violence acts will break out.
