Police kill two Al-Qaeda terrorists, arrest another [Archives:2006/986/Front Page]

SANA'A, Oct. 1 ) Following the hunt for Fawaz Al-Rabeyi, an Al-Qaeda leader sentenced to death, security authorities discovered the terrorist's hideout on the outskirts of Sana'a, an official Interior Ministry source affirmed.

Al-Rabeyi was sentenced to death for killing a policeman at an Abyan checkpoint. Security authorities also considered him the main plotter in assaulting oil installations in Hadramout and Marib and attempting to attack foreign interests in the capital.

Security authorities besieged his hideout and raided it after Al-Rabeyi refused to surrender and began hurling grenades and firing at policemen. Police then returned fire and shot him dead.

Security stormed another neighborhood hideout, where they found terrorist Mohammed Al-Dailami, an Al-Qaeda element who escaped from a political security jail.

Al-Dailami was killed in confrontations with police while a third terrorist, an aide of Al-Rabeyi, was arrested and imprisoned. In raiding the two terrorist hideouts, policemen discovered arms, hand grenades and other explosives, in addition to numerous books, documents and Al-Qaeda publications.

Security authorities still are investigating the captured terrorist to learn more information about the terrorist cell, which was seized in mid-September in Sana'a with quantities of arms and explosives.
