也门：联合国人权办也门职员在胡塞拘留中死亡 人权高专要求独立调查
联合国人权事务高级专员福尔克尔·蒂尔克（Volker Türk）10月31日发表声明说，联合国人权办公室的也门籍职员穆罕默德·沙米（Mohammad el Shami）在胡塞武装拘留中死亡，他自2024年6月6日起被任意拘押，已超过两年。蒂尔克要求进行迅速、独立和彻底的调查。
蒂尔克说，沙米的家人表示，他们最近才被告知其死讯，而死亡实际发生在一个多月前，家人未得到任何关于死因或情形的说明。
蒂尔克同时要求立即、无条件释放所有仍被胡塞拘押的联合国人员，包括其办公室的七名同事，以及被拘的人道主义工作者与民间社会成员。也门总理谴责这起死亡、称胡塞须负全部责任并要求追责；他说仍有70多名联合国雇员和数十名人道主义工作者被拘押。
胡塞方面没有立即置评。该组织曾称被拘者是为美国和以色列工作的间谍网络成员，并指控人道组织以工作为掩护从事情报活动，但未提供证据。胡塞2014年夺取首都萨那后，沙特领导的联军于2015年军事介入支持国际承认的也门政府，也门自此南北分裂。
Yemen: UN Human Rights Staff Member Dies in Houthi Custody, Rights Chief Demands Investigation
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk said on October 31 that Mohammad el Shami, a Yemeni staff member of the UN Human Rights Office, has died in Houthi custody after being arbitrarily detained for more than two years, since June 6, 2024, and called for a prompt, independent and thorough investigation.
Türk said el Shami's family had been informed of his death only recently, more than a month after it occurred, and had received no explanation of the cause or circumstances.
Türk also demanded the immediate and unconditional release of all other UN personnel held by the Houthis, including seven colleagues from his office, as well as detained humanitarian workers and civil society members. Yemen's prime minister condemned the death, held the Houthis fully responsible and called for accountability, saying more than 70 UN employees and dozens of humanitarian workers remained detained.
There was no immediate comment from the Houthis, who have said those detained were part of a spy network working for the United States and Israel and have accused humanitarian organisations of using their work as cover for intelligence activities, without providing evidence. The Houthis seized the capital Sanaa in 2014, prompting a Saudi-led military intervention in 2015 in support of Yemen's internationally recognised government.
