HADRAMOUT, Aug 31 (YPA) – Emirati officers arrested soldiers from the Hadrami elite, after assaulting them, following verbal altercations over the delivery of salaries, local sources reported on Wednesday.

“Emirati officers informed the command of the second region, and large forces came and arrested the soldiers, tied their hand behind their backs, threw them on pamphlets and military vehicles  – in a humiliating way – and handed them over to the criminal investigation in the Chechen region,” the sources said.

the soldiers are still detained and their hands are tied behind their backs, until the early hours of Thursday morning. They are subjected insults and torture,” one of the sources explained.

In the same context, their colleagues gathered to surround the criminal investigation camp, demanding their release, according to media outlets’ reports.

The media sources affirmed that they have obtained pictures showing the brutality of the assault suffered by the soldiers.
