Hadi receives intelligence chiefs
2012-07-03
[Yemen Post] President Abdurabu Mansour Hadi
...the second and possibly the last president of Yemen, successor to former President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh...
received on Sunday cheifs of the National Security and the Political Security, the two Yemeni intelligence services.

According to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), chiefs of the National Security Mohammad Al-Anisi and the Political Security Ghalib Al-Qamish presented a detailed report about a number of terrorist cells including the cell that killed about 100 soldiers in a military parade rehearsal on May 21.

Saba said that meeting reviewed the nature of crimes committed by terrorist groups, pointing out that they discussed how a number of suicide kabooms were foiled in Aden, Sana'a and other provinces.

Saba cited that they also discussed how a serious suicide kaboom was thwarted inside Al-Mukla, pointing out that this bombing would have been killed large numbers of human-beings.

Hadi urged security services to be alert and cautious, stressing that Al-Qaeda suffers of subsequent defeats and tries to retaliate against the nation as a whole, its stability and security.

He highly appreciated efforts by intelligence services to thwart terrorist bombing and arrest of terrorists, Saba said.

Al-Anisi revealed on Thursday that the Yemeni authorities set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock
Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please!
the terrorist cell which killed and injured hundreds of soldiers in a parade rehearsal in the capital Sana'a on May 21.

Al-Anisi explained that the security authorities could arrest the terrorist cell that is affiliated to Ansar Al-Shariah, an Al-Qaeda linked group, but he did not give more details.

Al-Qaeda had grabbed credit for the attack, which coincided with severe blows it was receiving under a US-backed offensive in the southern Abyan
...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirate after seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same. Yemeni government forces launched an effort to re-establish control of the region when President-for-Life Saleh was tossed and the carnage continues...
