Pair sentenced to 11 years in jail over terror charges

[Yzd Khalifa]

A special penal court in Riyadh on Saturday absolved two defendants accused in a terrorism case of five charges but were sentenced to a total of 11 years in prison after they were found guilty of four less serious charges.

The public prosecutor had demanded the death penalty against the pair, but the presiding judge ruled that the charges proved against them did not warrant the maximum punishment.

The court was set to sentence the three defendants in the case at Saturday’s session. But the second defendant did not appear at the hearing and the judge decided to sentence him in absentia at another session.

The three-judge judicial panel found the first and third defendants not guilty of charges that included joining a terrorist cell, engaging in terrorist operations and embracing the Takfiri ideology.

The first defendant was also acquitted of sedition and money laundering due to lack of evidence.

In 2004, the court sentenced the first and third defendants to five and six years in prison respectively. The first defendant was found guilty of aiding and abetting a wanted person, providing him with shelter and smuggling him outside Rafha governorate.

The third defendant concealed information from the authorities about the whereabouts of a group of wanted persons. He took SR5,000 from one of them after he promised he would join the group.

A terrorist is a terroist ,and this malignant tumor MUST be extracted ASAP.

Terrorist suicide attack on Pilloce HQ, Riyadh 2/2/2004.

Surprisingly, the terrorist was a cousin of a friend of mine.
We lost 4 policemen in this attack.

I guess the MOI did the right thing, giving their trail a full media coverage deserves an accolade ,if you ask me. By doing so, we will be sending an unequivocal message to those who wish to hunt innocent people down all around the globe that they will never get away with what their evil deeds. Especially when those terrorists prefer to kill civilians than standing like men and confront their enemies in the battlefield.

Yes, each family will continue to receive the victim's salary with its own annual bonus as well as an additional $500 for every child. In addition to that, the Gov't decided to rename the streets whereby the family's victim live to honor them for their service. Medical care, housing, and private education are also included in every family's package. When the victims' children grow up, they can also reclaim their loved-ones post.

Why do you bother Yazeed??

You know nobody cares that Takfiri ideology is punishable by law here. Everyone hates you here for racist and sectarian reasons, that is it.

Well, some people here would be very interested to know about that especially when it comes out of a Saudi mouth xD. I don't think everybody hates us here AND even if many did it makes no difference to us.
@Armstrong do you hate all Saudis = /

Yes I hate all Saudis....no scratch that....I hate all Arabs because they created Hummus !

Every time I eat it....I feel like washing my tongue & the few Arabs I've dined with were like 'Yummy...Yummy' !

Nah, mate we don't hate Saudis !

Yes we have a few concerns & a few disappointment but by & large Saudi Arabia enjoys a special place in the hearts of the common Pakistani. One doesn't need to look beyond the reception that every Saudi Official gets in Pakistan or the reception by 'the People' that Sheikh Suadis got when he visited Lahore with thousands upon thousands gathered at the Badshahi Mosque where he delivered a sermon or conducted prayers !

I've told my Mad Scientist brother @Mosamania a thousand times to not let Internet Pakistanis be the judge of anything but does he listen !

Just to put things in perspective - Most of us - Internet Pakistanis - were supporting PTI but in the elections its the 3rd largest party of Pakistan with the largest having a decisive majority so you can well imagine how reflective we are of the common Pakistani.
