The Central Bank of Yemen warned of the circulation of false papers counterfeiting Yemeni national currency. The Bank's Governor Munsar Al-Qua'iti said in a statement to official Yemen News Agency yesterday that security authorities had seized a quantity of boxes containing false banknotes of denomination 5000 Yemeni riyals attributed to the Central Bank of Yemen. He noted that such a work is a criminal offense in violation of the law perpetrated by gangs specializing in counterfeiting currencies and securities, accusing coup militias in Sanaa of being behind this counterfeiting.
