Saudi royal faces execution for murder.

[mojaveman]

A Saudi prince who murdered a fellow Saudi may be executed in a rare example of a member of the kingdom's ruling family facing the death penalty.

I was working over there last year when this happened. The royal family member was at a gathering of some sort and shot the guy after he had a few too many and got into a heated argument with him. Those Saudis are nutzo even when they're sober.

From the article:
In a message about the case to Interior Minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, Prince Salman said: "Sharia (Islamic law) shall be applied to all without exception", the daily reported.

Prince Salman's message followed a statement from the victim's father that he was not ready to pardon the killer and he was not happy with the amount offered as blood money.

The families of murder victims are encouraged by authorities to accept blood money instead of insisting on execution.He could always fly the father w/other family males to a country which allows "debauchery" of all sorts....;)

Well, a thousand years of inbreeding will do that to you.
