ADEN-SABA
Yemen's prime minister has called for the arrest of a criminal gang who attempted but failed to rob the Yemen National Bank but injured two of its employees including the manager of the bank branch in Aden two days ago.
Premier Ahmed bin-Daghr was discussing the incident that happened to the National Bank of Yemen's Aden branch, with Shallal Shaye'a, the director general of Aden Police Department today.
Such acts are against the Islamic religion and morals of the Yemeni people, Shallal affirmed.
The prime minister said he realizes an improvement achieved in the field of security in Aden, but the recent criminal incidents will be faced with all toughness and resolve and soon will disappear.
He asserted the importance of regulating firearms possession and of taking tough precautionary measures to prevent the recurrence of such acts.
