The Houthi militant group which seized power in Yemen is looking into a complaint against tens of politicians, activists, businessmen and military officials.
The figures including, a journalist, activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Tawakkul Karman, are accused of committing crimes against Yemen's sovereignty and safety of its territories, Saba agency reported.
Karman won the prize in recognition of her role during the peaceful protests that forced former president to resign in 2011.
The complaint was filed to the Chief Prosecutor by the Sanaa-based Legal Center for Rights and Development.
It was about crimes against the independence, unity and safety of Yemen, Saba said, while pointing out these crimes have been committed by 39 military, politicians, activists, businessmen and social figures. Most of the accused people are living abroad, it said.
The center said on its Facebook page the complaint is connected with airstrikes by a Saudi-led coalition against Yemen.
The coalition launched a military operation against the Houthi militants, dissident forces backing them and military brigades and weapon depots controlled by both for more than a month.
The intervention was in response to an appeal by president Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi after the militants with support from forces loyal to the former president had carried out a coup and then waged battles against their foes in many cities.
Other accused figures included preacher and founder of the Eyman University, Abdulmajeed Al-Zindani, advisor to transition president and former commander of the first armored division Ali Mohsen Al-Ahmer, businessman Hamid Al-Ahmer and his brother Hussein Al-Ahmer, tourism minister Muammar Al-Eryani and former director of president's office Ahmed Awadh bin Mubarak.
