| [Yemen Post] Seven Al-Qaeda suspects including two Saudis were placed in durance vile by rustics in south Yemen, al-tagheer.com quoted a security source as saying. Abdullah Nasser Al-Qadani, the security director in Abyan province where the army has been fighting Al-Qaeda cut-throats for months, said the arrests took place in the coastal Shuqra city. The five Yemeni suspects were from Abyan, the stronghold of Al-Qaeda in the country and Marib province. Recently, the tribes joined the armed forces to fight Al-Qaeda cut-throats helping kill and arrest many thugs. When the popular youth-led revolution started in the country months ago, Al-Qaeda or the Sharia supporters exploited the situation and took over Abyan declaring it as an Islamic emirate. The army with support from the tribes has regained several cities from the hands of the cut-throats whose presence is increasing the western concerns about the plans of hard boyz in Yemen. |
