SANAA, Nov 23 (Reuters) – Yemeni tribesmen have released a Japanese engineer they abducted and he has arrived in Sanaa, the governor of the capital said on Monday.

The kidnappers seized the engineer, who was working with a Yemeni government project, to press the Yemeni government to release jailed relatives. “He has arrived in Sanaa and I am waiting for him in my office,” Governor Numan Dwaid told Reuters.
