Saudi executes gay lovers for killing Pakistani
Saudi Arabia executed two men yesterday who beat to death a Pakistani to stop him exposing their ?shameful? homosexual relationship, the Interior ministry said.
It said Ahmed al-Enezi and Shahir al-Roubli, both Saudis, ran over Malik Khan in their car, beat him on the head with stones and set fire to his corpse ?fearing they would be exposed after the victim witnessed them in a shameful situation?.
Homosexuality is a criminal offence in Saudi Arabia, a deeply conservative Muslim kingdom, which implements a strict version of Sharia Islamic law. Convicted murderers, rapists and drug traffickers are usually executed in public. The ministry said the two men were executed in the northern town of Arar, close to the border with Iraq.
