Al-Iryani added" By doing so the Houthi militia has already turned capital Sana'a into large detention center, denying the peoples' political, social and economic rights, looting their subsistence and exercising the most gruesome forms of oppression, harassment and psychological bullying.

The Minister called on the International Security Council, UN's envoy to Yemen and all interested international organizations to condemn these practices and mount pressure on the militia to release thousands of detainees including Maj. General Muhmood Al-Sabaihi, Maj. General Faisal Rajab and Brig. Nasser Mansour Hadi…"
