The government on Sunday approved the law that grants Mr. Saleh immunity from "legal and judicial prosecution" for any alleged crimes committed during his 33-year rule. Yemen’s parliament still must approve the deal.
In November, Mr. Saleh signed a Gulf-brokered deal aimed at ending the political crisis in the impoverished country.
Under that deal, he handed authority to Vice President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, ahead of a February presidential election in which Hadi is the consensus candidate of major parties.
