| The father of Ali ibn Saud ibn Nasser, the alleged killer of a British citizen in Riyadh on Thursday, has said his son does not belong to any organization. "He's not a member of any religious group," he told Al-Watan. He said that his son, aged 26, was very emotional, and that although his son was allegedly involved he condemned the shooting. "He always kills infidels when he gets upset... Why, yes, he is always upset. Why do you ask?" Ali was suspected of having links with Al-Qaeda. Saudi security sources said Nasser had recently traveled to Pakistan and named his youngest son Osama. Ali, who belongs to the Al-Harithy tribe in Najran, killed Robert Dent, a British commercial officer at the BAE Systems, by shooting him at close range. Family sources said Ali's parents had a nervous breakdown after hearing that their son may have been involved in the shooting incident. Police arrested Ali, who was employed at Baashen Establishment in Riyadh, soon after the incident. Made the pilgrimage to Pakland, where he got fired up with that Olde Tyme Religion™. |
