Qaeda leader surrenders in Jawf as hunt for suspects continues

SANA'A, Aug. 14
(Saba) - An al Qaeda leader gave up on Saturday in Jawf Province in northeast
Yemen's capital
Sana'a, a security source said. Juma'an Safian, who was the leader of al Qaeda in
the province, surrendered as the massive hunt for terrorist suspects throughout the
country
is continuing. In late 2009 and so far this year, the security authorities launched
several successful terror operations killing, injuring, and arresting dozens of al
Qaeda
suspects in northern, southern and southeastern areas. In recent months, the
Interior Ministry said many terror suspects were arrested, mainly in Mareb Province.
