Qaeda threatens to kidnap Saudi royals

DUBAI: Al Qaeda has threatened to kidnap Saudi princes and ministers in order to secure the release of a female al Qaeda operative arrested by Saudi forces, al Arabiya television reported on Thursday.

In an audiotape played on al Arabiya, an al Qaeda regional commander threatened “major operations” against the kingdom following the arrest of Haylah Al Qassir.

Qassir was believed to be responsible for recruiting women to the global militant group as well as handling money issues, the Arab satellite television channel said.

“Al Qaeda is organizing cells to kidnap...princes, ministers and officials including military commanders,” Saeed Al Shehri said in the audiotape.

Reuters could not verify the accuracy of the recording.

The regional Yemen-based arm of the group, known as al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), jumped to the forefront of Western and Saudi security concerns after it claimed responsibility for a failed December attempt to bomb a US-bound passenger plane.

In April, the group tried to assassinate the British ambassador to Yemen when a suicide bomber threw himself into the path of his convoy in the capital, Sanaa.

Only the suicide bomber died, but the bold hit signalled that a recent crackdown by the Yemeni government on the global militant group has done little to curb its ambitions to carry out attacks in the region and beyond. Reuters

Its not the first time they have tried this. They have been launching terrorists attacks in Saudi Arabia since 2003 including assassination attempts at the royal family.

Its just that this kept mostly under wraps so its not well known outside KSA
 
is it true??

Its not exactly a secret
 
Al qaeda need 100 thousand strong comrades to do that, but why they want to kidnap there financial life line, must be a prank. :cheers:
