RAK victim's sons insist on death for killers

The sons of a man murdered in Ras Al Khaimah insisted in court on the execution of the two Arab killers of their father, rejecting an out-of-court diya (blood money) settlement, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

The two Arabs had been arrested by the police on charges of murdering the Emirati man, in his 50s, while trying to rob him.

The Arabic language daily Al Khaleej said the victim’s son refused to accept diya, prompting the judge to adjourn hearings to October.
