| Yemen Releases Four Indians Abducted Outside Capital, Ministry |
| 2012-05-14 |
| [Yemen Post] The Yemeni authorities released four Indian tourists, three men and a woman, who were kidnapped on Saturday in the district of Al-Haima Al-Kharijya outside the capital Sanaa, the interior ministry reported. Four gunnies kidnapped the foreigners when they were on their car for unclear reasons, but late on Saturday they were released and in good condition, the ministry said. Measures are underway to hunt the abductors from this district, it added. Kidnapping foreigners has recently declined very much in Yemen. Some tribes used to abduct foreigners in their areas to ask for ransoms or to pressure the authorities to meet special demands including release of detainees or to supply basic services. |
