ABHA — Prince Faisal Bin Khaled, Emir of Asir region, has given directives to admit a boy, who was attacked by illegal Ethiopian workers, into a hospital at his expenses. He also instructed the authorities to catch the perpetrators, the spokesman for Asir Emirate said. Ten-year Ahmed Al-Asiri, who lives in a village in Abha, sustained severe head and face injuries after a group of Ethiopian infiltrators pelted him with stones while he was playing outside the house. His mother and her relatives took him to the nearest hospital, which was 25 km away. Ahmed's father, who works in a military sector, told Prince Faisal that he was attacked two weeks ago by the same Ethiopians. He said the Ethiopians wanted to take revenge against him because he reported many of them to authorities. Ahmed's father said his son lost some of his teeth and had 20 stitches in his head. He added that the Ethiopians infiltrators robbed his sheep and gas cylinders in the past and had broken into many houses in the village.
