YJS holds Houthis responsible for detainees' deteriorated health

[01/04/2017 01:52]

Sana'a (Saba)- The Yemeni Journalists Syndicate (YJS) has held the militias of the Houthi-Saleh coup responsible for the deteriorated health of the detained journalists held inside their custodies.

A member of the Yemeni Journalists Syndicate's council Nabil al-Osaidi told the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) that YJS obtained information that the journalist Tawfeeq al-Mansouri's health has extremely deteriorated.

Al-Osaidi spelt out that al-Mansouri is suffering from heart illness, shortness of breath, prostatic hyperplasia, citing that these diseases paralyzed his movement and that he is still without any health care.

The other journalists held at custodies of the Houthi-Saleh militias suffer from bad detention conditions, al-Osaidi added.

Al-Osaidi demanded to immediately take al-Mansouri to hospital to be treated and release all detainees, shouldering the Houthi-Saleh militias responsible for torture, mistreatment and deprivation of being treated or visited by their families.

He called all organizations interested in freedom of expression, particularly the international Federation of Journalists and Federation of Arab Journalists, to express solidarity with the detained journalists and put pressures on the militias to release them.
