In a statement of which Yemen news agency "Saba" received a copy, the Ministry of Human Rights said it will cooperate actively and continuously with all the competent international organizations to achieve the highest degree of effective protection of human rights.
The Ministry said that the government has closed the African Immigrants Center in Aden the director of which was accused of committing abuses against the immigrants in it and moved the immigrants to a safer location.
The government had set up a panel to interrogate the accused perpetrator, the Center's director, and carry out a thorough investigation into the violation claims reported by Human Rights Watch.
