RIYADH: Saudi security forces have arrested a suspected militant, while another Saudi was detained on suspicion of links to a shootout in neighbouring Kuwait, an interior ministry spokesman said Monday. The wanted suspect was arrested late Saturday after security forces raided his house in Baqaa, in the northern region of Hael, Brigardier Mansour al-Turki told AFP. "He surrendered without putting up any resistance." Saudi Arabia is battling a wave of attacks blamed on Al-Qaeda sympathizers that has claimed some 90 lives and wounded hundreds since May 2003. Turki also confirmed press reports that Saudi authorities arrested last week a Saudi national suspected of links to the deadly gunfight in a Kuwait City suburb on January 10. "A Saudi man was arrested at a border crossing-point ... within two days" of the gunbattle in which two Kuwaiti security officers and a suspected militant were killed, Turki said.
