Kharj, Saudi Arabia, 14 Dhu Al-Hijjah 1431 H. / 20 November 2010, SPA -- A court decision to kill a culprit for having killed a policeman several years ago awaiting the victims' junior dependants to decide either pardon him or go ahead with the judge verdict, was carried out today in Al-Kharj, some 100 km south of the city of Riyadh. Mohsen bin Faisal bin Mitle'a Al Braik Al-Dosary, a Saudi national, was driving his car opposite to the traffic to head-on a police patrol, all of a sudden shot at the patrol, killing Staff Sergeant Saeed bin Yae'en Allah bin Saeed Al-Ghamdi and fled away. Arrested later, he was sentenced to death awaiting the victim's then-junior dependants to become adults and decide, together with the rest of inheritors, whether to pardon him or go ahead with the judge decision. Killing him, upon Islamic Sharia law, was the option of those concerned.
