Revolutionist House Raided

Sana'a, June 17, 2011- Tawakul Karman, a leading Yemeni revolutionist, said that her house was raided and looted last night by security forces.

Karman was not in the house at the time of the raid.

Most of the valuables were taken and many household items were destroyed.

Her organization, Journalists Without Chains, was also raided and every thing inside was damaged, including the studio.

Karman blamed President Saleh's son Ahmed, and nephew Ammar for standing behind the raids and demanded the international community to help her seek justice.

Last week, her brother Tareq went missing while coming back from Taiz province. She is holding the government responsible for the kidnapping and safety of her brother.
