Saudi Defence Minister Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz has announced the establishment of an Islamic tribunal to try Muslim extremists, newspapers reported Wednesday. “Our country has been exposed to problems but cooperation between the men of the security services, the national guard and the army has allowed the sedition to be put out,” he said in a speech Tuesday before military officers. “Those who want the good of those close to them have returned (to the right path) but those who want evil will be judged according to Islamic norms,” said Prince Sultan, who is also the Gulf Arab state’s crown prince. Saudi authorities have been hunting down suspected members of the Al-Qaeda network that has carried out a series of deadly attacks in the oil-rich kingdom since May 2003.
