Founder of Dar Al Salam Organization harassed [Archives:2005/867/Local News]

SANA'A- Abdurrahman Yahya al-Marwani, Founder of Al Salam Cultural and Social Organization for Combating Revenge, Violence and Spreading Culture of Tolerance and International Peace, came under harassments and threats.

Unidentified persons threatened chairman of the organization, Mr Abdurrahman Yahya of physical harm. He has lately been prevented from traveling abroad and his passport was confiscated by the Political Security Organisation authorities at the Sana'a International Airport.

Those practices interrupted the Al Salam organization's chairman as he was on his way to participate in the inter-meeting of the Afro-Arab Non- governmental Organizations scheduled to be held in Tripoli.

The organization mentioned that the Ministry of Human Rights issued a statement confirming its receiving several complaints from various organizations, concerning the attack of Sheikh al-Marwani.

Hood Organization for Defending Rights and Freedoms, on the other hand, had strongly condemned such malpractices, describing them as contradicting teachings of Islam and the human values.
