Saudi Arabia executes two Bangladeshis for ‘s*xual act’ inside Mecca mosque

 Saudi Arabia says it has executed two Bangladeshi nationals
for committing a s*xual act inside a mosque in the holy city of Mecca.

 

Announcing the executions in a statement on Wednesday, the
Saudi ministry of interior identified the offenders as Nazrul Islam Abdul Basir
and Siti Akhtar, a woman.

 

The ministry said security authorities arrested the duo
following the incident and charged them after an investigation.

 

According to the statement, a competent court found both
individuals guilty and sentenced them to death as a discretionary punishment
known as “Ta’zir”, citing the gravity of their actions and the violation of the
mosque’s sanctity.

 

 

The ministry said the judgment was upheld by the relevant
judicial authority before a royal order was issued for the sentences to be
carried out in accordance with Islamic law.

 

It added that the executions took place in the Makkah region
on Wednesday.

 

The ministry said the executions emphasised the Saudi
government’s commitment to maintaining security, upholding justice and
enforcing Islamic law against those who violate the sanctity of mosques and the
dignity of others.

 

 

It also warned that anyone who commits similar acts would
face punishments prescribed by Islamic law.
