    Saudi Kidnapper Executed

    RIYADH:
    A Saudi who kidnapped and tried to rape his employer was put to death on Tuesday in the kingdom’s 64th execution of the year.

    Mufrih bin Ahmed Khamis worked as the victim’s driver, the interior ministry said in a statement.

    A court found that he consumed alcohol before abducting her and her baby, “taking advantage of the fact that he drove her to the school where she worked,” it said.

    “He beat her, handcuffed her and placed tape over her mouth. He then drove her to an isolated location and tried to rape her.”

    After stealing her money and telephone, Khamis abandoned the woman and child, the ministry added.

    After his trial and conviction, Khamis was executed in the southwestern city of Abha.

    Saudi Arabia executes 70th convict this year

    Saudi Arabia executed a citizen convicted of murder on Sunday, bringing to 70 the number of people it has put to death this year.

    Alaa al-Zahrani was found guilty of killing fellow Saudi Abdullah al-Sumairi with a rock to the head, the Interior Ministry said.

    He was put to death in the Red Sea city of Jeddah, said a ministry statement carried by the official SPA news agency.

    The 70 executions so far this year include 47 death sentences for “terrorism” carried out in a single day on January 2.

    Most people sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia are beheaded with a sword.

    In 2015, Saudi Arabia executed 153 people, most of them for drug trafficking or murder, according to an AFP count.

    Amnesty International says the number of executions in Saudi Arabia last year was the highest for two decades.

    However, the tally was far behind those of China and Iran.

    The kingdom has a strict Islamic legal code under which murder, drug trafficking, armed robbery, rape and apostasy are all punishable by death.
