Al-Tagheer’s website Yemenat The six arrested and imprisoned members of al-Tagheer include northerners and southerners. The organization is comprised of democracy advocates from a variety of parties and organizations. Al-Tagheer is the rights organization headed by MP Ahmed Saif Hashid who was named Yemen Times “Man of the Year 2007″ for his civil rights advocacy. Hashid gave me a ground breaking interview about conditions in Yemeni prisons and subsequently faced loss of his parliamentary immunity.
