The Houthi militia’s practices are not different to the mafias’: Eryani

[30/05/2021 10:40]

ADEN-SABA
Yemen’s Information Minister Muammar al-Eryani has said that the Houthi militia’s practices are not different to the mafias’ after tape records from within the militia revealed that the militia stage sexual scandals for their members for future leverage on them.

In a recent record tape that went viral, the Houthi politician Abdu Bishr, was warning his fellows in the Sana’a ‘parliament’ that the militia are forcing women into disappearance and employing some of them in sexual extortion networks.

“These heinous crimes are unprecedented in the history of Yemen,” said al-Eryani. “The practices of the terrorist Houthi militia are not different to the mafias’,” he said.

Al-Eryani called on all Yemenis to rally behind the government to restore the Yemeni state and defend their identity and dignity against the militia which is endangering the future of their children.
