Saudi condemns four to death for forming ‘Iran cell’

A Saudi court sentences four people to death for links to regional rival Iran, alleging that they were plotting the assassination of “prominent figures,” state media says.

“The criminal court has sentenced four terrorists to death for forming a cell for Iran,” the state-owned Al-Ekhbariya TV reports.

“The terrorists were trained in camps in Iran” and “planned to assassinate prominent figures,” Al-Ekhbariya says, without giving any more details on those convicted.
