Al-Qaeda group leader arrested >From correspondents in Sanaa | September 22, 2008 YEMENI authorities have arrested the leader of the Islamic Jihad group which had claimed responsibility for a suicide attack on the US embassy that killed 17 people, a state-run website said today. The September 26 site (26sep.net) said group leader Abu al-Ghaith al-Yamani was among six people arrested "for threatening to target foreign embassies". On Friday, the group, which had said it was behind Thursday's twin car bombings of the embassy, said it belonged to al Qaeda and threatened to attack the British and Saudi embassies and assassinate high state officials unless the government freed its jailed members.
