The government has reiterated its non-toleration with human rights violations, and its commitment to holding abusers accountable regardless of their capacity or positions.

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.

The ministry stressed the government's keenness to continue its contacts with international organizations to ensure that there are no violations of human rights on the Yemeni territory. It pointed out that Human Rights Watch has been informed of the measures taken in that claim and the mechanisms set to guarantee the non-recurrence of such violations, if proven to have been committed .
