Two Terrorists try Toe Tags in Riyadh
Saudi security forces killed two militants, including one on the kingdom’s most wanted list, in a shootout in the capital of Riyadh on Monday, a security official said. An Interior Ministry statement said the two were killed in the al-Nasseem neighborhood, in eastern Riyadh, in an exchange of fire with security forces on Monday afternoon. The suspects were riding in a vehicle and refused to stop for a spot identification check by members of the security forces. The suspects began shooting at the security forces, who returned fire, killing the two, the statement said. The statement said six hand grenades, two AK-47 assault rifles, three 9mm pistols and $137,000 in cash were found in the vehicle. The security forces took no casualties, according to the statement. A security official said one of the dead was Khaled Haj Ali, who ranks third on the government’s list of 26 most wanted militants.
How's it feel to be dead, Khaled? (Don't bother answering that...)
The 26 are wanted in connection with Riyadh bombings last year that killed 51 people. The deputy Saudi interior minister, Ahmed bin Abdul-Aziz, said last month an unspecified number of those on the list are now in custody. Two militants from the list were killed last year in clashes with the security forces. Only one suspect on the list is known to have surrendered to authorities after it was made public in December. The government is offering a reward of $267,000 for information leading to the arrest of any suspect on the list.
