By: almotamar.net - SANA'A- Al-Balagh independent newspaper quoted its sources as saying Sheikh Abdul-Majeed al-Zindani, chairman of Islah Shoura Council, has talked with President Ali Abdullah Saleh on the phone in an attempt to mediate for Hamid al-Ahmer, informing Saleh to treat al-Ahmer as his son and discipline him when making mistakes.
The newspaper said al-Zindaini's attempt was made at the directives of Hamid al-Ahmer, adding such mediation didn't succeed, which caused al-Ahmer to attack the General People's Congress during the celebration held last week to honor former presidential candidate of the Joint Meeting Parties.
