Yemen\'s president Ali Abdullah Saleh is being treated at a Saudi hospital for shrapnel wounds Embattled Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh, being treated for shrapnel wounds in Riyadh, will not return home, a top Saudi official told AFP on Friday, contrary to Sanaa\'s claims that he will return soon. \"The Yemeni  president will not return to Yemen,\" the official said, requesting anonymity.
\"It has not been decided where he will stay,\" the official added, apparently suggesting that Saleh might eventually leave Saudi Arabia for another country.
The official did not specify whether the decision not to return home was taken by Saleh himself.
The veteran leader was flown to Riyadh on June 4 on board a Saudi medical aircraft, a day after he was wounded in a bomb explosion at a mosque inside his Sanaa presidential compound.
He has not been seen in public since the attack.
