The National Alliance for Political Parties has strongly condemned death verdicts issued by Houthi militia's court on Tuesday against 36 detainees most of them kidnapped by the militia four years ago and suffered different forms of physical and psychological torture.
Some me of the detainees were died over severe torture.
In a release issued Tuesday, the alliance said such verdicts are illegal as they have been issued by a court should be relocated to Aden by a Republican Decree and that the verdicts were based on false procedures and continuous breaches to law and all human rights accords.
