Judge Files Urgent Complaint Against Incitement to Kill
Judge Abdulwahab Qotran has submitted an urgent complaint to the Saudi Attorney General, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch regarding incitement to kill him and his family. Currently residing in Aden, southern Yemen, to spend Eid Al-Adha holiday with his family, Judge Qotran stated in his report that he and his family have been subjected to explicit incitements to murder and bloodshed by a woman named Ebtisam Abu Dunya, a Yemeni citizen living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. These incitements were communicated through posts and videos she published on her Facebook and Twitter (X) accounts on June 7 and 8, 2025. Qotran emphasized that Abu Dunya's posts, which were attached to the complaint, constitute a clear and direct call for his assassination and that of his children, as well as direct incitement to spill their blood, based on his political views and his human rights stance against the violations of the Houthi group. He noted that he has exercised his right to move freely within his country, Yemen. He argued that this public incitement represents a complete crime according to Yemeni criminal law, as well as applicable Saudi laws, and constitutes a serious violation of international human rights conventions, putting his life and that of his family at imminent risk. Judge Qotran called on the Public Prosecution in Saudi Arabia to take urgent legal action against Ebtisam Abu Dunya, currently residing in the Kingdom, and to investigate the crime of public incitement to murder, as it poses a threat to individual security and community safety. He also urged Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch to intervene urgently to monitor this serious violation, condemn the incitement and hate speech that infringe upon the right to life and physical safety, and demand guarantees for his and his family's safety. Qotran announced that he would appoint a licensed attorney within Saudi Arabia to pursue this case and file a criminal lawsuit with the relevant judicial authorities to legally pursue Abu Dunya and impose the appropriate penalties according to Saudi law.

Dr. Bin Habtoor Joins Shabwa Eid al-Adha celebration, affirms Sana'a as Haven Yemeni resistance to Occupation
Sana'a - Saba: Dr. Abdulaziz Saleh Bin Habtoor, a member of the Supreme Political Council, on Sunday participated in an Eid al-Adha event organized by the local authority and Executive Office in Shabwa governorate. Addressing the gathering, Dr. Bin Habtoor conveyed greetings and congratulations from the Leader of the Revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and Mahdi al-Mashat, President of the Supreme Political Council. He underscored the leadership's commitment to the people of Shabwa and the southern and eastern governorates. Dr. Bin Habtoor emphasized Sana'a's historical role as a refuge for all Yemenis, not only during current challenges but consistently since the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, affirming its enduring status as Yemen's capital, particularly during difficult periods. He drew parallels to the suffering endured by southern governorates under British occupation and a subsequent "totalitarian regime," noting that Sana'a provided a welcoming haven. He explained that Yemenis' decision to rally behind the leader of the revolution stems from their refusal to accept any colonizer, whether "small or large," including "Britain or its tools and creations, such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia," stressing that Yemenis have never and will never accept such occupiers. Dr. Bin Habtoor referenced historical resistance, including the revolt against Captain Haines in Aden 150 years ago, and the resistance in southern Abyan, Hadhramaut, the Awaliq Mountains, and Bayhan, which received support from northern Yemen at the time. He commended Shabwa Governorate for hosting the event, which he said reaffirmed continuous support for the revolutionary, political, and military leadership's decisions regarding Palestinian rights and addressed issues concerning the governorate's populace. Attendees included Deputy Minister of Administration, Local and Rural Development Nasser al-Mahdhar, Hadhramaut Governor Luqman Baras, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Administration, Local and Rural Development Jamal Al-Alawi, as well as local authority, security, and military leaders, sheikhs, and dignitaries from the governorate. Shabwa Governor Awad Al-Awlaki praised the steadfastness of the people of Shabwa on the "front lines of pride and dignity." He highlighted the importance of believing in victory, citing the justice of the cause, the leadership of Sayyid Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and the unifying political project of the Yemeni people as key factors. Governor Al-Awlaki stressed the significance of building upon the goals of the "glorious September 21 Revolution" to establish a modern, strong, and independent Yemeni state with sovereign decision-making, free from foreign interference. He underscored the importance of Yemen's current battle in support of "brothers in the Gaza Strip," who are facing "genocide and starvation by the Zionist entity with American support," asserting that Yemen's honorable stance will be a source of pride for all free people of the nation. He concluded by reiterating the Shabwa people's support for all leadership decisions that back the "oppressed Palestinian people" and defend holy sites. The event featured two poems celebrating the stance of the Leader and the Yemeni people in solidarity with Gaza. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (Local)
