They belonged to a terrorist cell that had ties with Al-Qaeda. The cell subscribed to ideology that violated the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah.

The duo monitored and followed Laurent Barbot, a technical assistant for French electronics group Thales, and killed with a machine gun on Sept. 26, 2004, said the SPA.

They were also convicted of plotting to assassinate foreign officials in the Kingdom, as well as tracking and opening fire on a vehicle belonging to one consulate, the statement said. The ministry said despite their precautions, security services tossed in the slammer

the krazed killers.

Meanwhile,

Meanwhile,
...back at the palazzo, Count Guido had been cornered by the banditti...
two Pak were executed in Riyadh on Thursday for smuggling heroin into the Kingdom. They were arrested while trying to smuggle a large amount of heroin hidden in their stomach, said the Interior Ministry.

#1  Could it be that it took 11 years for learned scholars to find citations for this - "The cell subscribed to ideology that violated the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah"- and if they did, do share please, we anxiously await.
