Saudi beheads national, two Pakistanis for drug trafficking
RIYADH - A Saudi convicted of murder and two Pakistanis found guilty of drug trafficking were beheaded by the sword on Sunday, the interior ministry said. Mufreh bin Ahmad al-Missbali Assiri stabbed to death Abdullah bin Mohammed al-Mudhlim Assiri after an argument, the ministry said in a statement carried by the state news agency SPA. He was executed in the southwestern region of Assir.

The two Pakistani men were beheaded in the Red Sea city of Jeddah for drug trafficking, the ministry said in a separate statement. Nasser Khan and Abdulrasheed Musharaf were caught trying to smuggle undisclosed amounts of heroin hidden in their stomachs into the kingdom, the ministry said.
You can have that job -- I've seen, up close and personal in the ICU, what happens. The 'mules' swallow balloons containing heroin or cocaine wrapped in layers of latex to smuggle them through customs. Every once in a while a balloon in the stomach or colon starts to leak. It ain't pretty.
The beheadings brought to 66 the number of executions announced by the Saudi authorities this year.
