Colonel Abdul-Hakim Shaef, the Security Director of the Lahj region in Yemen, revealed to Arabdtoday that serious efforts were being exerted by official bodies and social personalities to release five people kidnapped by an armed group of Sabiha tribes on Monday afternoon. The armed group kidnapped four Syrians and a Yemeni in protest against the Yemeni authority arresting a member of the tribe, Bajash al-Aghbary, last Friday in Aden. The arrested member of the tribe is a former prisoner who spent 20 years in Sanaa’s prisons and was released during the youth revolution February last year. Security forces arrested the political activist Bajash al-Aghbary at a checkpoint with the excuse of possessing a weapon, in addition to a local official in Aden and they were transported to Sanaa. Sources said one of the Sabiha members was killed during the arrest. A tribal source told Arabstoday that armed groups of Sabiha tribes kidnapped eight people on Monday, including two Syrians and four Yemenis, one of which is a military commander. They were detained in the al-Baha directorate, of Sabiha. Furthermore, two Saudi Arabians were kidnapped on the International coastal road which connects Aden and Lahj, precisely in Khor Alamierh. However, the Security Director denied the news, stressing that there were only five who had been kidnapped and they were truck drivers for the known businessman Shaher Abdul Haq. Shaef said that the efforts resulted in the release of nine trailers while three are still to be release, stating that there are currently intensified efforts done to release the trailers and the five kidnapped persons.
