He also briefed her on the achievements of the National Committee for Investigating into Alleged Human Rights Abuses and the government's cooperation with the committee.

He thanked the Netherlands for providing the Committee with technical assistance.

The minister also informed of President Hadi's referral of the Committee's reports to the Public Prosecutor for further investigation and taking actions. Al-Mekhlafi said the Yemeni state leadership is determined not to allow such violations go unpunished, for human rights have to be safeguarded.

He wished success for the Ambassador's mission and more growth and development of the Dutch-Yemeni ties.
