The editor of the opposition weekly Al-Wahdawi threatened

The editor of the opposition weekly Al-Wahdawi, Ahmed Sayeed Nasser, was threatened by a phone caller who accused him of insulting the president and his family in various articles. The caller also said some of the newspaper’s reporters could be in danger as a result of the publication of documents shedding light on North Yemen President Ibrahim Al-Hamdi’s assassination in 1977. In an earlier call, someone identifying himself as an interior ministry official had accused the weekly of “going too far.”
