Boy raped, killed by neighbour and two men

A 17-year-old Saudi Qoran memorization student was raped and killed by three local men, including the victim’s neighbour, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Police arrested the three after finding the boy’s body in a desert area and DNA tests showed they were involved in the crime.

The boy’s mother in the western town of Makkah had reported him missing for many days, triggering a massive police search operation.

Police said they found the body with the help of the victim’s neighbour who later confessed to the crime after he was seen with two other men taking the victim away.

“The victim’s little brother told police he had seen his brother getting in a car driven by his neighbor and that there were two other men with him,” said Sabq daily.
