A protest rally was staged on Sunday by the Mothers of Abductees’ Association in Aden city, in order to demand the release of their children who are detained in Southern Transitional Council prisons.
At the rally, the protesters held the STC militia fully responsible for the lives of 40 arbitrarily detained sons and 43 abducted others.
They affirmed that the prisons of the Security Belt of the STC are still operating under tragic conditions, lack minimum health services, and experience frequent electricity blackouts in light of a severe heat wave sweeping the city of Aden, in addition to the spread of skin diseases and the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Association called on the Red Cross Committee in Aden to visit the prisons, especially Bir Ahmed prison, and work to treat the detainees for their basic and health needs.
