Pakistani beheaded in Saudi Arabia
 RIYADH: A Pakistani man was beheaded in Saudi Arabia on Saturday after being convicted of beating a compatriot to death with a brick, the Interior Ministry said. Mohammed Zada Sowali was found guilty of murder and theft, the ministry said in a statement. Sowali fatally beat the victim several times over the head with a brick, the statement said. The murdered man's wallet was also found in Sowali's possession. It was unclear when the victim was killed. Sowali was executed in the northern city of Arar, bringing to at least 53 the number of beheadings in Saudi Arabia this year. Last year, 35 people were executed in the kingdom.
