At least one Bangladeshi citizen was among a crew of 20 seamen, most of them Indian nationals, detained by Houthi rebels in Yemen capital Sana'a since February this year.

The detainees are crew members of three ships which set off to Saudi Arabia from Oman but anchored off the coast of Yemen, reports The New Indian Express.

Two Keralites -- Vadakara native Praveen Thammakarantavida (45), and Vizhinjam native Abdul Vahab Musthaba (42) -- are chief officers of two of the ships. One of the ships sank, but its crew was rescued.
