The Governor of Aden, Ahmed Hamid Lamlas, directed the arrest of the elements who attacked Al-Aidaroos stores in the Sira District, and the formation of a committee to investigate them and find out the real motives and reasons that led them to blackmail the shop owners.

This came after receiving a report about the incident that occurred last Thursday, in which a group of people stormed Al-Aidaroos stores and demanded sums of money from their owners.

A private source confirmed to “Third Eye” that Governor Lamlas ordered the sheriff of Sira District to detain the aggressors in the district’s police station, and to form a committee to investigate them.

The source added that there is a case pending before the prosecution filed by shop owners against the attackers, and that they have closed their shops in protest against these attacks.

The source indicated that the attackers did not respect the law or custom, and that they stormed the stores and demanded sums of money from their owners without any justification.
