Shabwa, NewsYemen:

Journalist Saleh Hagros revealed that two Hadrami Elite recruits were still detained by the Brotherhood's authority in Shabwa governorate.

Haqrous said, in a post on the social networking site Facebook, that two Hadrami elite soldiers have been detained for more than two months in a secret Brotherhood prison in Shabwa.

He pointed out that the security forces arrested them without any charge and that they are still in prison for the moment.

The Special Security Forces - led by Abed Rabbo Lakab - arrested on June 9, 35 officers and soldiers from the Hadrami Elite Forces known as the "Barshid Brigade" belonging to the second military region. They were monitored in various areas along the line between the governorate and Abyan, as they intended to go  to the city of Aden after obtaining permission to take a leave from their leadership.

Sources at the time suggested that the arrests were based on regional criteria.  Given the detainees' titles, identities and affiliations, local media indicated that most of the detainees were released hours after their arrest with the intervention of the coalition forces, and there were no clarifications about the nature of the intervention.
