Saudi Arabia executes 37 on terrorism charges

Executions carried out in six areas across the kingdom



Manama: Saudi Arabia on Tuesday executed 37 Saudis after they were convicted of terrorism.

“The individuals were found guilty of adopting the extremist terrorist ideology, forming terrorist cells to corrupt and disrupt security, spreading chaos, provoking sectarian strife and undermining peace and social security,” the interior ministry said in a statement.

“They were also guilty of attacking security headquarters using explosive bombs, killing several security officers, and of treason through cooperation with hostile parties to the detriment of the country’s highest interests.”

The death sentences were upheld by the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court and approved by a royal order, the ministry said.

The sentences were carried out in six different areas – Riyadh, Makkah, Madina, Eastern Province, Al Qasim and Aseer.
