The Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen said Head of Yemen’s Southern Transitional Council (STC) Aidrous Al-Zubaidi, left for Somaliland by boat and then boarded an aircraft to Somalia’s Mogadishu.
The plane that took him to Mogadishu from Somaliland “under the supervision of UAE officers” waited for an hour before flying to a military airport in Abu Dhabi, the coalition said in a statement early on Thursday.
The statement came a day after Al-Zubaidi was expelled from Yemen’s Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) for high treason.
In a decree, PLC Chairman Dr. Rashad Al-Alimi on Wednesday referred Al-Zubaidi to the general prosecutor for committing high treason and harming the unity and security of the state.
