Sana'a, NewsYemen, private:
Well-informed political sources in Sanaa revealed that the former ambassador and parliamentarian, Faisal Amin Abu Rass, had received threats from security leaders of the Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, against the background of his harsh criticism of the militias' policy related to the recent oil derivatives crisis in Sana'a.
The sources told NewsYemen that the Houthi security threats against Faisal Abu Ras were launched by leaders working in the intelligence service run by the militias through his brother, Sheikh Sadiq Abu Ras, who is a member of the Supreme Political Council under the control of the Houthis and head of the General People’s Congress in Sana’a, who received these threats during a call from Houthi leaders requesting He should stop his brother from publishing his criticisms against the militias, especially with regard to the oil derivatives crisis, or take responsibility for what will happen to him.
Recently, there has been an escalation of criticism published by the former ambassador and parliamentarian, Faisal Abu Ras, against the Houthi militias on the background of several issues, but his recent accusations of fabricating the oil derivatives crisis for political and material goals related to the practice of corruption and looting angered the militias and their leaders strongly, which forced the Houthi leader appointed as director of the company. The oil companies under their control to respond to him personally on Twitter, in which Abu Ras publishes his tweets, claiming that the crisis is caused by the blockade and preventing the entry of oil derivatives ships by the coalition. In reference to the tweets and criticisms of Faisal Abu Ras against the militias, the Arab coalition was behind them.
Faisal Abu Rass had launched a campaign of harsh criticism against the Houthi militia regarding its management of the oil derivatives crisis, whether by covering the queues of citizens’ cars in some Sana’a stations affiliated with the Houthi oil company, or the practices of Houthi elements against citizens, extortion of drivers, and bribes they receive in exchange for catering. People discriminated against others, and he even accused the Houthi oil company of being behind the crisis, as he said in a tweet to him on the fifth of this March on his Twitter page: “It is painful to the point of oppression that people suffer all this trouble and oil exists and it is said as a result of differences between the company.” And the owners of locomotives, and talking about the standards, standards, and specifications of the authority that God has sent down... God suffices us, and He is the best trustee, and God helps us.”
This tweet angered the Houthi militia, as the spokesman for the Houthi oil company, Issam Al-Mutawakil, rushed to respond to Faisal Abu Rass, before the company's director himself, Ammar Al-Adari, followed him in response and accused Abu Ras of working with the coalition.
Following the response of the director of the Houthi oil company, the militias’ campaign against Faisal Abu Ras escalated, as Houthi media and activists published allegations accusing Faisal Abu Ras’s brother, Sheikh Sadiq Amin Abu Ras, who is the head of the General People’s Congress in Sana’a and a member of the Houthi-run political council of leading the black market for oil derivatives. And he participates in Saudi Arabia in inflaming public opinion against the militias.
While the Sana’a conference did not issue any response or refutation of the campaign that affected its president, the sources commented on that by saying: The reaction of the Houthi militia, which spread false allegations about Sadiq Abu Ras, was nothing but an attempt to intimidate his brother Faisal to stop publishing his critical positions on the policies The Houthis and what they practice of grievances, looting, corruption, levies and creating crises, and at the same time an attempt to escape from the responsibility of creating the crisis of oil derivatives and domestic gas by seeking to escape from responsibility and trying to load it to their fictitious partner in governance, the Sana’a Conference, which, as the sources said, improved its silence and not being dragged into responding to The lies of the Houthi militia in this matter.
In the same context, media affiliated with the militia launched a fierce attack against Faisal Abu Ras, where the Houthi leader and the chairman of the board of directors of the militia-controlled Saba Agency, Nasr Al-Din Amer, described him as one of the "remnants and remnants of dirty Afash", as he described, while the head of the Houthi newspaper, Abdul Rahman Al-Ahnoumi, attacked him and described him as a column. A fifth serves the aggression and promotes their plans.
It is noteworthy that Faisal Abu Rass, brother of Sheikh Sadiq Abu Rass, head of the Sana’a Conference and a member of the Political Council under the control of the militias, is a former parliament member and former ambassador to Yemen in Lebanon, and he has strong relations with the leaders of the Lebanese Hezbollah, so that he was one of the most advocates of the Houthi militias during their wars of rebellion. Against the state, as well as from more than one who adopted and promoted its political and media positions against the Arab alliance.
