According to police reports, a man murdered his wife and four little children in a small town in the southern part of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The suspect, identified as a stateless person who had applied for Saudi citizenship, confessed the policemen he killed his whole family “to make sure they did not live through difficult conditions,” local press reported on August 28, 2013, Wednesday.
