Omar Karaman, Journalist Kidnapped over Facebook Revelations on Governor :
Yemen faces heightened security concerns as Yemen journalist, Omar Karaman, was forcibly abducted from his home in Al-Mukalla by an armed force affiliated with the Saudi-led coalition.
The raid, which occurred on Tuesday, caused panic and terror for Karaman’s wife, who recently gave birth, local media reported.
Human rights sources link the abduction to Karaman’s social media posts exposing questionable land acquisitions by Governor Mubarak bin Madi. Karaman’s revelations on Facebook resulted in his abduction, people say.
Masked gunmen seized the victims in Sheikh Othman district, leaving families distressed with no information on the abductors’ intentions or the captives’ destination.
