Psychopathic Saudi Cleric who raped and killed her daughter released.

[Puchtoon]

A ‘celebrity’ Saudi preacher accused of raping, torturing and killing his five-year-old daughter has reportedly been released from custody after agreeing to pay ‘blood money’.

Fayhan al-Ghamdi had been accused of killing his daughter Lama, who suffered multiple injuries including a crushed skull, broken back, broken ribs, a broken left arm and extensive bruising and burns. Social workers say she had also been repeatedly raped and burnt.

Fayhan al-Ghamdi admitted using a cane and cables to inflict the injuries after doubting his five-year-old daughter’s virginity and taking her to a doctor, according to the campaign group Women to Drive.

Rather than getting the death penalty or receiving a long prison sentence for the crime, Fayhan al-Ghamdi served only a few months in jail before a judge ruled the prosecution could only seek ‘blood money’.

Albawaba News reported the judge as saying: "Blood money and the time the defendant had served in prison since Lama's death suffices as punishment."

Fayhan al-Ghamdi, who regularly appears on television in Saudi Arabia, is said to have agreed to pay £31,000 to Lama’s mother.

The money is considered compensation under Islamic law, although it is only half the amount that would have been paid had Lama been a boy.

Despite Saudi Arabia’s famously strict legal system, Women to Drive say fathers cannot be executed for murdering their children in the country. Equally, husbands cannot be executed for murdering their wives.

Formal objections to the ruling have been raised by three Saudi activists, and the twitter hashtag #AnaLama (which translates as I Am Lama) has been set up.

Local reports say public anger over the settlement is growing across Saudi Arabia, with authorities planning to set up a 24-hour hotline to take calls about child abuse.

Suspicions know no age limits Sir. Ek dafa weham ho jaye to phir kiya karey ga woh?

It is characterized by at least three of the following:

excessive sensitivity to setbacks and rebuffs;
tendency to bear grudges persistently, i.e. refusal to forgive insults and injuries or slights;
suspiciousness and a pervasive tendency to distort experience by misconstruing the neutral or friendly actions of others as hostile or contemptuous;
a combative and tenacious sense of personal rights out of keeping with the actual situation;
recurrent suspicions, without justification, regarding sexual fidelity of spouse or sexual partner;
tendency to experience excessive self-importance, manifest in a persistent self-referential attitude;
preoccupation with unsubstantiated "conspiratorial" explanations of events both immediate to the patient and in the world at large.

Their country, their rules, Sir. Who are outsiders to object if their own society is okay with their justice system?

How do u know if they are "ok" with their systems? Man make all the laws, if women were even allowed to have their say, he would have been hanged by now.

People get the government they deserve and the Saudis are doing rather well, all things considered, with their monarchy. Coming to their justice system, it is pretty effective with crime statistics being very low overall.

To whom would he pay ‘blood money’? To himself

He paid it to the victim's mother, as the story says clearly.

I'm well-aware of the extent of the case you're talking about. No, the man hasn't been released yet. Firstly, let's take a look at the case thoroughly.

The 4-year-old girl came to the ER with several wounds and injuries, she was unconscious and they tried their best to save her over the last four days of her life ,but unfortunately she didn't make it. Her father turned himself in and was taken into custody. The man openly admitted that he sexually assaulted his daughter. Prior to the wife's claim regarding the sexual abuse of her daughter ,the husband was taken to court a week after the death and was set on the death row. However, there have been some indications regarding the mental status for the man. It became clear to the judge that the husband is diagnosed with schizophrenia and was taking a considerable portion of bills. Therefore, the judge knew that he wasn't dealing with a normal guy ,so instead of giving him the death penalty he referred him to a psychiatric hospital in Riyadh for an infinite period of time i.e. until he recovers which is most likely impossible for his case IMO.

The Wife never asked for a single penny off the bucket of her husband. All what she wanted is a divorce and she got it.

Just to set the record straight, I would encourage you not to comment on cases you aren't fully aware of. And I don't know how Indians treat their parents ,but for us we teach our kids not to drop a drop of an ink out of the line of our cultural book.

Also, It's too rude to call Saudi religious men MULLAHS ,they call them Shikehs.




We SAUDIS don't share the same core essence of such philosophy. We draw a red line in our social map, if crossed there will be a price to pay.

Funny how much of ignorance some people enjoy here in PDF.
