Saudi authorities on Monday executed a local man convicted of abducting a little boy and raping him, the official news agency SPA reported.
Abdullah bin Suleiman bin Abdullah was convicted by a court in the central town of Buraidah on charges of kidnapping the boy from near his house, driving him to a desolate place and raping him.
SPA said the defendant was executed after the court’s sentence was ratified by King Abdullah but it did not mention whether the execution was carried out by shooting or beheading. The agency also did not specify the victim’s age.
