Dozens of cancer patients and injured individuals in Aden, Yemen's interim capital, staged a protest on Saturday demanding the return of their funds frozen by a local exchange company that recently declared bankruptcy. The demonstrators gathered outside the Al-Muflihi Exchange and Remittance Company branch in the Bir Ahmed area of the Al-Buraiqah district. They held signs condemning the company for holding their money, emphasizing that these funds were essential for covering medical treatment and travel expenses, thereby exacerbating their already precarious health and humanitarian situations. Participants appealed to the relevant authorities for immediate intervention and legal action to ensure the recovery of their assets. They also called for a transparent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the company's closure and the fate of depositors' money. The protesters affirmed their determination to reclaim their funds from the company's assets, asserting it as a legal right, particularly given their critical health conditions. |
