16,000 displaced persons back homes after Al-Qaeda exit
2012-01-30
[Yemen Post] About 16,000 displaced persons of Radda town, about 150 kilometers southeast Sana'a, have returned their homes after the exit of Al-Qaeda Death Eaters.

Deputy governor of Baidha governorate, Ali Almansori, launched school semester examinations after they were postponed due to turbulence caused Al-Qaeda existence.

Tribal leaders and dignitaries of Radda highly appreciated the mediation commission that could persuade Al-Qaeda to leave Radda.

In a statement, they hold Al-Qaeda gun-hung tough guys responsible for the crimes committed inside the town, urging the security services to shoulder their responsibility in protecting the town.

Local sources said residents of Radda erupted into the streets in celebration and fired shots in the air after the withdrawal of Al-Qaeda Death Eaters, pointing out that life returned to its nature, and markets, institutions and services centers were reopened.

Militants led by Tariq Al-Dhahab, a relative of Anwar Al-Walaki, a Yemeni-American holy man who was killed in a American drone strike last fall, had took over the town and positioned inside the archeological castle of Alamiria and its mosque.

However,
some people cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go...
the fighters left the town in exchange for the release of their fellow relatives, after forming a committee of 35 dignitaries from seven different Yemeni cities.

"Radaa was stabilized and secured as a result of efforts exerted by tribal leaders and dignitaries" said Mohammad Saad, a resident of Rada'a.

After their control on Radda, Al-Qaeda gun-hung tough guys released all the inmates of the central jail of Rada'a and engaged fighting with rustics in which several persons were killed.
