FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Yemenis say they want their country to be cleansed of the former regime, adding that there will be no change as long as Saleh loyalists and his family members are in control of power positions in the government, the military and security apparatus.
The demonstrators also called for the prosecution of Saleh and his aides over the killing of thousands of anti-government protesters during the country’s revolution.
Protest rallies were held after the Friday Prayers in several major cities, including the capital, Sana’a, Taizz and Aden.
Saleh, who ruled Yemen for 33 years, stepped down in February under a US-backed power transfer deal in return for immunity after nearly a year of mass street protests against his rule.
His deputy UK-trained field marshal Abdrabuh Mansur Hadi, replaced him on February 25 following a single-candidate presidential election backed by the United States and Saudi Arabia. Hadi will serve for an interim two-year period as stipulated by the power transfer deal.
Currently Saleh’s eldest son Ahmed commands the elite Republican Guard, his nephew Yehya heads the central security services and another nephew, Tariq, controls the Presidential Guard.
Saleh’s General People’s Congress (GPC) party has also 17 ministers in the 34-member unity cabinet.
