CAIRO: The Yemeni interim government announced a new plan to re-establish security across the Gulf country, the official SABA news agency reported. The new measures include an ultimatum of two days to remove all military barricades and gunmen from the capital Sana'a. “The committee will check, starting from Saturday, the situation in all streets, public and private buildings and schools,” the agency reported, quoting General Ali Saeed, the country's security committee's spokesman. Saeed added that the government will not hesitate to identify and charge violators of the new measures, but did not comment on what the possible punishment would be. The capital has seen massive amounts of violence in the past 11 months, since an uprising against ousted President Ali Abdullah Saleh began. Dozens of people have been killed as the government forces cracked down on protesters, using live fire to disperse crowds, killing civilians. The new security committee is part of a United Nations-backed transfer of power agreement signed by Saleh and the opposition in November. Saleh is granted immunity from prosecution, but he will be forced to leave the country and his role as dictator as a result. Yemen is also struggling with rising poverty rates and malnutrition as the Saleh government had cut off food aid into the country during the protests.
