Yemeni police arrest a demonstrator in the al-Maalla district, in Aden city on April 8, 2008 as protests continued in southern Yemen. The protests in the south of the country have focused on demands for greater state aid for the more than 60,000 people retired early from army or civil service jobs following a 1994 bid to restore the south’s independence. Demonstrators have also expressed anger at rising prices in one of the world’s poorest countries. AFP Photo/KHALED FAZAA (Photo credit should read KHALED FAZAA/AFP/Getty Images)
