 RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (UPI) -- A Saudi terrorist convicted of committing several crimes in northern Saudi Arabia two years ago died in prison from natural causes, reports said Thursday. | Of course, they're real flexible on the definition of "natural" |
The daily Okaz quoted security sources as saying Sultan Zeid, who was serving a prison sentence for his role in the assassination of a government official, a judge and a cleric in the province of Jouf in 2003, died from heart complications and diabetes. | Having your heart stop beating does qualify as a "complication" |
They said he had been transferred for treatment to the prison hospital where he died.
| Without a mark on the body, unless you count the needle mark. |
'The body was handed over to his family on Wednesday,' the sources said, without specifying when he had died. Zeid was one of seven terrorists who were arrested in January 2004 and admitted their crimes. |
