A Saudi prisoner was given a five-star wedding party inside the jail in the Gulf Kingdom, the second such event to be staged by a Saudi prison in a week.

Prison management also prepared a suite inside the jail for the man and his wife to spend their honeymoon, 'Sabq' newspaper said.



The extravagant party, which involved many guests and massive tables for food and cake, was held at Al Hayer prison in the capital Riyadh, the Kingdom’s largest political prison, the paper said without identifying the groom.

It said the groom later received a SR1,000 (Dh10,000) cheque  as a wedding gift from Interior Minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef.



“34 guests attended the party, including 17 men, 10 women and seven children. They came to the wedding at 7.00 pm and left at 11.45pm,” the paper said.
