Arabia
Two Saudis beheaded for murdering compatriots
2005-09-26
RIYADH - Two Saudi men were beheaded by the sword in Saudi Arabia on Sunday after they were convicted of killing compatriots, the interior ministry announced.

Fares bin Abdul Karim Al Anzi was found guilty of fatally shooting Turki bin Najr Al Metairi after a fight and was beheaded in Riyadh, the ministry said in a statement carried by the official SPA news agency. Abdullah bin Saad Al Dossari was beheaded in the Muslim holy city of Mecca after he was convicted of shooting to death Abdullah bin Obaid Al Dossari following a row, the ministry said in a separate statement.
"Mom, can we go to the beheadings? Pleeeee-ase?"
The executions brought to 68 the number of beheadings announced by Saudi authorities since the beginning of the year.
