Saudi Arabia beheaded a Pakistani convicted of drug trafficking and one of its own citizens for murder, the interior ministry said in a statement carried by SPA state news agency.
Saudi Bandar Khalaf al Enzi was found guilty of strangling a man to death during a dispute. He was executed in the north Hail region.
Pakistani Kamran Ghulam Abbas was executed in Khubar, in Eastern Province, after being convicted of smuggling a “large quantity of heroin,” the ministry said in a separate statement.
The two beheadings bring to 48 the number of executions carried out in the desert kingdom this year, according to an AFP tally.
