The specialized appeals section in Yemen at the beginning of last November decided the acquittal of 19 persons accused of forming an armed gang, among them five Saudis while it condemned six of them on charges of planning to attack Arab interests in Yemen and possessing forged official documents.
It is worthwhile mentioning that Yemen and Saudi Arabia have an agreement of security cooperation according to which they exchange persons wanted in issues of terror, security and other crimes from both countries.
