UAE prosecutes journalist Fathi Bin Lazraq

ADEN, Sept. 21 (YPA) – The Prosecution for the Press and Printed Materials in Aden, which is under the contriok of The  UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)  summoned journalist Fathi Bin Lazraq, Aden Al-Ghad editor-in-chief.

The prosecution’s summons, which required Bin Lazraq to appear the coming Sunday, did not specify the party that had lodged the complaint against Bin Lazraq but cites the charge as ‘publishing false information’.

Sources anticipated that a security agency may be behind the summons of Bin Lazraq and cautioned against attempts to find grounds for the arrest of Aden al-Ghad editor-in-chief due to his media activities and his exposure and criticism of corrupt practices.
