YEMEN-UNREST-SAUDI-QAEDA-TRIAL

Yemeni soldiers are positioned outside a lower court in Sanaa during the hearing of Saudi nationals who were accused of joining an Al-Qaeda plot to attack Yemen’s security earlier this month on September 12, 2013. The five, who were arrested in June, were cleared of the charges for lack of evidence, however two of the group were sentenced to 18 months in prison each after being convicted of forging identity documents and entering Yemen illegally, an AFP correspondent at court reported.
