The Ministry of Interior in Saudi Arabia has released a statement today, confirming the execution of a death sentence in the Eastern Province as punishment for a perpetrator. The statement identifies the Saudi national, Mohammad bin Abdullah bin Ali Al Abd Al Jabbar, as the accused, who was charged with committing a terror crime by "joining a terrorist cell, firing at security headquarters, monitoring security personnel, and informing terrorist elements of their movements, resulting in the targeting of three security officers." The accused was brought before the court, which found him guilty and sentenced him to death as a discretionary punishment. This verdict was upheld by the higher court, and a royal order was subsequently issued to enforce the verdict. The execution took place on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, in the Eastern Province. The authority announced this to reaffirm the Kingdom's dedication to upholding security, achieving justice, and enforcing Islamic Sharia law against those who violate the rights of others, harm them, and infringe on their right to life.
