A Saudi citizen convicted of shooting dead five relatives with a sub-machinegun was beheaded by the sword in the southern Jizan province on Tuesday, the interior ministry said.
Hasan bin Jaber bin Mufreh Harubi was found guilty of murdering three male and two female relatives over a feud resolved by a court in favor of the victims, the ministry said in a statement, according to SPA.
The ministry said the "ugly" crime was a "form of spreading corruption ... and that it undermines public security." (Albawaba.com)
