      10 days, 12 beheadings, one sword: Saudi 2022 executions break their own record

      The Saudi Arabia government executed 12 people in the span of just 10 days for drug and substance-related offences. Notably, most of these executions were carried out with a sword, a human rights organisation recently said in its report. The series of executions, most of which are beheadings, follows the record 81 executions by the monarchy in March this year. The beheadings came despite Saudi Crown prince Mohammed bin Salman’s vow to reduce harsh punishments and curtail death sentences, especially for non-violent crimes. In 2018, Crown Prince bin Salman said his administration was looking to “minimise” capital punishment and only execute people found guilty of murder or manslaughter. Source

      THE recent spree of layoffs by some of the biggest tech companies in America came as an ‘unpleasant’ surprise for Indian employees, who are living and working in the US on H-1B visas.

She stressed that “the resumption of executions for drug offenses in Saudi Arabia is a deeply regrettable step, especially coming days after a large majority of states at the UN General Assembly called for a global moratorium on capital punishment. “Since executions are only confirmed once they take place in Saudi Arabia, we do…
