A Nepalese convicted of murder and an Afghani found guilty of drug trafficking were beheaded by the sword in Saudi Arabia Friday, the interior ministry said. The Nepalese man, Kioual Man Limbou, was executed in the northwestern region of Tabuk for killing two women and a man and wounding a child, all members of the same Saudi family, "with a truncheon," the ministry said in a statement carried by the official SPA news agency. Sultan Khan Osman Omrah, an Afghani, was convicted of drug trafficking after he was arrested for trying to smuggle "a quantity of hashish" into the kingdom and was executed in Wadi Dawasser in the Riyadh region, it said.

#3 "with a truncheon" solution:outlaw auto-truncheons and sue truncheon manufacturers. No more truncheons =no more truncheon deaths. |

#2 Hey, one of my my uncles-in-law used to be a nepalese, a limbou specifically (and an ex-gurkha, for you military-buffs type, now owning a restaurant in Scotland)! I know these family names are actually kind of clan/cast denominators, but Kioul Man probably was a remote relative. Weird. |

#1 Yes, but do they also paint shark faces on their warplanes? If they do, Maggie Drabble may have another nervous breakdown. |
