“Two Japanese women kidnapped in Yemen freed after tribal mediation”

The Associated PressPublished: May 7, 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “SAN’A, Yemen: Two female Japanese tourists kidnapped in Yemen’s Marib province Wednesday were freed after tribal mediation, said a Yemeni security official and the country’s Tourism Ministry.

The two women were kidnapped by members of the Aziza tribe, who demanded that Yemeni officials release one of their tribesman who was in government custody, said the security official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media.”
