Yemeni security authorities will extradite 24 Saudis suspected of several "security crimes" to the Saudi authorities in the next few days, an official source in the Yemeni Interior Ministry was quoted as saying on Thursday.

 

According to SABA, the source added that the Interior Minister Rashad al-Alimi had sent a letter to his Saudi counterpart Nayif bin Abdul-Aziz dealing with the suspects to be extradited to the Saudi authorities. Extradition of those persons who were arrested in Yemen came in the framework of the security agreement that was signed between the two sides on exchanging criminals and wanted, the source added.
