Qahtani has only three days to pay 3 million riyals or face the death penalty. The blood money that would save his life goes back 11 years to a fight with that ended in the death of a friend and Al-Qahtani's subsequent imprisonment. The family of the murdered man were convinced by good-will mediators to spare the life of Al-Qahtani on the condition that pays the sum of 3 million riyals. A court had already passed the death sentence on him. The deadline that was set for the handing over of the money came to an end last Sunday, with Al-Qahtani's family having managed to collect only SR500,000. – Okaz __
