Aden, (Saba) - An authorized source at Yemen's Information Ministry has strongly denounced a death verdict against journalist Abdul-Raqeeb al-Jubaihi, who has worked, as Information Specialist for Yemeni Premiership, for a long time.

The verdict is fully political issued by a court under Houthi-Saleh rebels, said the source.

"It is {the verdict} a part of a policy destroying Yemeni social ties and a political killing against a holder of different opinion and thought rejecting the coup and its perpetrators through politicized judiciary," added the source.

The verdict has been issued several days after suing 35 CSO activists over accusations of supporting Arab Coalition, which means that the rebels have already installed gallows to kill their political rivals, asserted the source.

Such comic courts, explained the source, prove to the international rights and human organizations that we are facing immoral and inhuman project and a group does not care of committing daily crimes against our people.

The Information Ministry Source reminded the international community that there are more than 14 thousand people and 3 thousand forcibly disappeared cases at Hothi-Saleh's detentions since 2014.

The international community has moral duty to play humanitarian role towards this catastrophe not to remain silent before suffering of thousands of families, said the source.
