Iraqis Arrested in Yemen
More BS propaganda from the King of Spin:
Just when former Amb Hasani starts talking about al-Qaeda in the top leadership of Yemeni government and security forces, just as the Iraqi generals hired by the Yemeni military come to light, just as intelligence reports surface of Yemeni al-Qaeda sponsored training camps for Ba’athists to go fight our guys in Iraq, Saleh pulls out these three Iraqi guys. Who were in jail already for two years. Now he’s going to try them (and convict them) and call it cooperation in the WOT.
While all the other Saddam people in Yemen continue their work.
WT: Sanaa, Yemen, May. 29 (UPI) — Yemeni judicial sources said Sunday three Iraqi intelligence officers from the former Saddam Hussein regime are to be tried in a terrorism court.
A court official said the three men will be tried next week on charges of involvement in plotting to blow up the American and British embassies in Sanaa.
On condition of anonymity, he said the former intelligence officers were accused of forming “an armed gang aimed at destabilizing the security of the country and planning terrorism acts against foreign targets.”
The source said Yemeni authorities arrested the three Iraqis two years ago and found plans for their attacks, official documents issued by the former Iraqi regime and explosives.
The official did not say why the suspects had been held without trial for the past two years.
