Sabri Salmeen Bin Makhashin is a Yemeni journalist and editor-in-chief who has faced legal harassment for his reporting on corruption and public affairs. On 08 April 2025, the Specialised Criminal Prosecution in Hadhramaut Governorate issued an order to forcibly bring him, along with journalists Abduljabbar Omar Bajber and Muzahim Bajaber, before the court for failing to comply with previous summons. On 10 April 2025, the Director of Hadhramaut Police issued arrest warrants against the three journalists, stating they were wanted for investigation by the Specialized Criminal Prosecution. On 03 June 2025, Bin Makhashin posted an appeal on Facebook addressed to the Yemeni Journalists Syndicate and human rights organisations, stating: “I carried my pen along with my fellow journalists, Abduljabbar Bajber and Muzahim Bajaber, and our pages embraced the causes of the oppressed and downtrodden, and we published major and horrific corruption cases that are destroying the national economy.” He criticised the issuance of coercive orders against them instead of action against the corruption they exposed and called on all civil society organisations to show solidarity. Bin Makhashin’s case highlights the ongoing repression faced by journalists in Hadhramaut, including arrests, court summonses, and threats related to their investigative reporting.
