almotamar-net - A Yemeni court is to try individuals who recently came from Iraq where they took part in fights in the country, and others received by Yemen from the American Cuba-based Guantanamo prison, said a local legal source on Thursday.

The source said that those individuals are among 14 persons to be tried for forming an armed group and planning to attack foreign people and facilities in the capital.

The court will also try 20 other individuals next week accused of being members of Al-Qaeda network, the source said.
