Saudi Arabia has executed three people in Riyadh convicted of terror-related charges, the Ministry of Interior said yesterday.
According to the ministry, the individuals Talal Al-Hudhali, Majdi Al-Kaabi and Raed Al-Kaabi, were executed for “committing criminal acts … including treason, providing support to terrorist entities, and communicating with them, adopting a terrorist approach that permits the shedding of blood, money and honour, and inciting people to carry out terrorist acts with the aim of undermining the security and stability of society.”
The kingdom has carried out 150 executions since January against individuals involved in criminal cases including drugs smuggling as well as political cases.
