Terror suspect killed in Awamiya gunbattle
2014-09-29
[ARABNEWS] A terror suspect who was involved in rioting and sedition in the Eastern Province city of Awamiya, Qatif, was killed in a gunbattle with security forces in a late-night operation, a high-ranking official said on Saturday.

"Basem Ali Muhammad Al-Qideihi, who had led several armed attacks on citizens, expatriates and police forces in Awamiya, was spotted on Friday," said Interior Ministry front man Maj. Gen. Mansour Al-Turki.

Security forces came under fire when they ambushed his hide-out, where they found him in the company of friends and accomplices.

The suspect was injured during the exchange of fire with police and security forces.

He was taken to hospital but suffered a "setback" following initial treatment, the official Saudi Press Agency said, citing doctors.

An associate of the suspect was in stable, pH balanced condition after being maimed in the shootout, SPA said.

Al-Turki has asked other absconding Death Eaters to surrender to the authorities, while warning members of the public against harboring any wanted terror suspect.

Al-Qideihi was involved in the Awamiya riots, while his brother, Jassem Al-Qideihi, is a terrorist who is under security custody.

A resident of Tarot island in the Eastern Province, Al-Qideihi used to undertake subversive activities in collusion with several other terrorists, who have now been captured, security officials have said.
