News from Al-Madinah: Abdul Qadir Al-Murtada, the head of the prisoner affairs committee in the Sanaa administration, disclosed that the deal reached in the Jordanian capital Amman last March calls for the release of 16 Saudi inmates and 3 Sudanese prisoners.
In contrast to the 823 inmates from the opposing side, 1400 convicts from the army and committees will be released under the terms of the deal that was signed in March, he noted.
He stated in a press release on Saturday that “the agreement covers all the coalition nations and their parties from the Yemenis in response to a question about an anticipated special exchange between Riyadh and Sana’a.
The chairman of the Prisoners Committee reaffirmed that his organisation is prepared to carry out the agreement as written and expressed a desire to work out some issues with other parties in the coming days.
He stated that the execution of the prisoner exchange agreement was impacted, adding that “this is a humanitarian file that must remain neutral and has nothing to do with other military and political files.” He expressed the hope that this visit would be the beginning of the implementation and a comprehensive resolution to the humanitarian prisoner file.
We cannot claim to have solved every issue relating to the failure to carry out the prisoner exchange agreement reached in Jordan, but we have told the Saudi delegation of the challenges and issues that the Yemenis have faced, said Al-Murtada.
The Saudi mission, he noted, “visited the Saudi and Sudanese inmates as we are linked with the alliance, and the captives confirmed to the Saudi delegation to receive decent care.
