Kidnap of Saudi diplomat in Yemen

Local sources in Aden have confirmed to Arabstoday that the province security institutions have arrested some suspicious persons following the kidnapping of the Saudi Deputy Consul in Aden, Abdullah al-Khaledi. The same sources ruled out that the kidnap is politically  motivated as the first indications of the investigation suggest  the incident was due  to familial controversies between al-Khaledi and his Yemeni wife\'s family. Yemeni security forces have begun a tracking operation to reach al-Khaledi\'s location, insisting that the security information has confirmed he is in good health, while the security institutions will not reveal any official information about the motivations behind this operation before al-Khaledi is released.
