Yemen: persons arrested for selling Bin laden pictures

The Yemeni daily al-Thawri ( the revolutionary ) said on Thursday that the Yemeni authorities arrested four persons for selling pictures for Usama Bin Laden.

The paper which is the mouthpiece of the Yemeni socialist party said that the four men were arrested last week in al-Bayadah area southern east the capital Sanaa.

However, a Yemeni official source denied to have known about such detention.
