| [ARABNEWS] Two Saudi women are to stand trial this week for attempting to join Al-Qaeda after illegally infiltrating into neighboring Yemen, an online paper reported. The women were reportedly accompanied by six children and three Yemeni smugglers, the paper said. The two women, both government employees, were known for their extreme and anti-government opinions and had reportedly tried to incite youth into joining the terror group, burnews.com reported, quoting local media. The duo had even encouraged young Saudis on social networking sites to fight abroad and had tried to incite dissidence among women and minors, the paper said. The two women were formally charged with inciting sedition after their Twitter accounts were found to contain calls for staging demonstrations in contravention of a previous pledge they had undertaken when placed in durance vile Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! for taking part in a protest in Buraidah, Qassim. In the pledge, the women accepted having legal action taken against them in the event they engaged in demonstrations again, the paper reported. |
