ABYAN, Nov. 05 (YPA) – The local authority of Mudiyah district in Abyan province, south of Yemen, denounced the kidnapping of dozens of citizens of the district by the militias of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) for the past months.
A statement issued by the expanded meeting held by the local authority in the district with several sheikhs confirmed that the STC militia carried out a campaign of raids and incursions into homes, and kidnapping dozens of citizens without justification after taking control of the district in last September.
The statement explained that the families do not know the fate of their kidnapped sons and the justifications for their arrest, calling for the rehabilitation of all those who were attacked by the militia.
They demanded that the STC militia implemented what was agreed upon by bringing in any security wanted through the sheikhs.
