Saudi Arabia announces the execution of three soldiers for 'high treason'

[Disir]

Saudi Arabia on Saturday executed three soldiers for "high treason", the defence ministry said, in a rare public announcement that accused them of colluding with an unspecified enemy.


The executions come as a Saudi-led military campaign intensifies in neighbouring Yemen and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom's de facto ruler, consolidates his grip on power.
The soldiers were convicted of "the crime of high treason in cooperation with the enemy" in a way that threatens the kingdom and its military interests, the ministry said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.
The statement named the three soldiers -- Mohammed bin Ahmed, Shaher bin Issa and Hamoud bin Ibrahim -- without identifying which enemy they were accused of aiding.

It is one of those areas that America should stay away from.

It is one thing to comment on matters of International Law. It is another matter entirely to comment on a foreign national security matter for which America has no dog in the fight.

Saudi law has always been despicable and must be scorned internationally.

It's all good, Rocco. Were cool.

Saudi Arabia should have been eliminated right after 9/11.

 

[Disir]

It isn't necessary to eliminate them.
