On Tuesday, the World Association of Newspapers issued a letter to the President of Yemen in response to the charges and subsequent jailing of a Yemeni journalist, Abdulkareem Al-Khaiwani. Al-Khaiwani has been held because of critical comments against the country’s government - and is only one of a few journalists who have had similar run-ins in recent times with the Yemeni state.
