Yemen acquits 23 of aiming to fight US forces
2006-07-15
Meanwhile, in Yemen ...
SANAA - A Yemeni court on Saturday acquitted 23 men on charges of forming an armed group that planned to go to Iraq and fight US-led forces there. But the court found 21 of the men guilty of faking official documents, and handed down jail terms of between three years and two months, and three years and four months. Two men were acquitted of all charges.

Earlier this month, another court acquitted 19 men, including five Saudis, charged with planning attacks against US interests in the Arab country due to lack of evidence.
