The Appeal Prosecution in Remah province asked for brining the security director of Al-Jafariyah district, his companions and the prison guard in for investigation over a physical and psychological torture of the teacher Ismael Saad Abdu for 16 days.

The lawyer, Khalid al-Raimi, coordinator of the National Organization for Defending Rights and Freedoms in Hodeidah, said the head of the Appeal Court in the province ordered the security director to send the suit file to the Prosecution to start investigation with suspects.

Al-Raimi said that the security director might be referred to a punishment council recently set by the Interior Ministry to punish the outlaw personnel. But he said sucha procedure is to punish those who violated their duty, but the tortured teacher has the right to sue them before justice.
