Nice , Al Qaida living right in the same neighborhood as A U.S. Embassy , don't we have some kind of Intelligence in the Area ?
SANAA, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- Yemeni anti-terror forces have arrested seven suspected members of an al-Qaida-linked sleeper cell in a quarter, adjacent to the U.S. embassy in Sanaa, a higher-ranking security official of Interior Ministry said on Sunday.
The anti-terrorism forces on late Tuesday raided al-Houri house at Sawan quarter, and captured three members of the family Esam, Majid and Kamal al-Houri, the official said on condition of anonymity. One of al-Houri members was reportedly killed in Iraq three years ago, as he was fighting alongside al-Qaida.
The house and the U.S. embassy are all located in Sawan district in Sanaa.
A tip from an observant security officer in the area also led to the arrest of another four suspected members from the same quarter, said the official.
