What happened
Houthi forces stormed Othman mosque in Hodeidah on 4 April 2015, arrested Abdelmalik Salem al-Hutami and struck his son Mohamed with a rifle butt. Al-Hutami was held by Political Security; his diabetes and blood-pressure problems worsened.
His wife told Amnesty International that gunmen removed him from intensive care despite medical staff’s objections. Amnesty examined a March 2016 release order that remained unimplemented when its report was published in May.
