Almotamar.net - SANAA- The Yemeni minister of foreign affairs and expatriates denied anew what some media have reported on Thursday about the presence of the former Iraqi vice-president Izzat al-Douri on its territories.

FM Dr. Abu Bakr al-Qirbi said in an exclusive statement to almotamar.net said media reports on the presence of al-Douri in Yemen are groundless, adding that this information was by some electronic news sites owned by Iraqi journalists.
News agencies had earlier quoted on Thursday the Iraqi president Jalal Talabani concerning the presence of al-Douri as saying, "I was told at one time that Izzat al-Douri is present in Syria then it has been clear he is present in Yemen and not in Syria. For some time ago we have information on his presence in Yemen because we follow up al-Douri's movements."
