Hadramout official jailed over project damage
A government official in Hadramout was imprisoned following a report issued by a journalist from Ghayl Bawazir district, revealing damage to the Jifif Dam project funded by the World Bank due to destruction and lack of maintenance. The journalist, Al-Hamed Omar Al-Hamed, sent a video showing the damages sustained by the project, and called for proper evaluation and approval of sustainable projects before their inauguration. However, the official authorities did not respond appropriately to his report and detained him for a week without any legal justification, despite having filed a complaint with the Southern Journalists and Media Professionals Syndicate. The case highlights the recurring pattern of repression against journalists and the exposure of facts regarding development projects in the region.
