In implementation of the directives of His Excellency the chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council, Dr. Rashad Muhammad Al-Alimi, the judicial authorities released 158 insolvent persons in a number of Yemeni governorates.

A source in the Public Prosecution told the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), that the committees formed by the governors of the governorates, heads of public prosecutions, police directors and heads of chambers of commerce and industry, have managed, until today, Wednesday, to release 158 insolvent persons who have spent two-thirds and three-quarters of their sentences.

The source pointed out that the list of those released so far included 140 prisoners who spent more than two-thirds of the period they were sentenced to, in addition to 18 insolvent prisoners who have been paid their financial rights.
