The Association of Mothers of Abductees called for the full revelation of the fate of 60 forcibly disappeared people in the prisons of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s militias in Aden city, south of Yemen.
In a statement, the association affirmed that 60 of their children have been abducted by the STC’s security services in Aden, deprived of their freedom for years, with their families being deprived of the right to visit, often not even knowing about the fate of their disappeared relatives.
The statement expressed the deep concern about the continued disappearance of the children without information about their health and lives.
It denounced the neglect and procrastination in revealing the appearance of kidnapped children and resolving their humanitarian file.
The association’s statement appealed to the international community and all human rights and media organisations to put pressure and work to end the suffering.
“There are 60 forcibly disappeared people about whom nothing is known, some of whom have been away for a period exceeding eight years,” it added”
The statement stressed that these horrific violations against these civilians contradict international standards of human rights and fundamental freedoms agreed upon by the entire world.
