Video: Dead man found in Saudi desert

Two Saudi men having a ride in the desert stumbled across a dead man lying on the sand off the road, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

The two filmed the body and reported it to the police, who said later that examinations showed the man had died normally and no criminal act was involved.

“We are still investigating to identify the dead man,” 'Ajel' newspaper said, quoting police spokesman Colonel Ziad Al Ruqaiti.

The paper published a short film which it said was provided by the two men who found the body in the desert in the Eastern Ihsa province.
