KSA – Five Saudi people accused of involvement in the murder of Endowments and Inheritance Judge Shaikh Mohammed bin Abdulla Al-Jirani have been identified.
The Saudi Ministry named the suspects as Saudi Zaki Mohammed Salman Al-Faraj, Salman bin Ali Salman Al-Faraj, Mohammed Hussein Ali Al-Ammar, Maitham Ali Mohammed Al-Qudaihi and Ali Bilal Al-Hamad.
Zaki Al-Faraj has since been arrested while his half-brother was gunned down in clashes with the security forces in the village of Al-Awamiya in Al-Qatif.
The Interior Ministry appealed to the public to report any information which may lead to the other suspects, who are still on the run.
They are all accused of kidnapping Judge Al-Jirani last May in front of his house in the village of Taroot in the Eastern Province.
Police investigation revealed that they assassinated the kidnapped judge and buried his body at an abandoned farm known as Al-Salhiya.
Forensic teams conducted a DNA test and post-mortem on the decomposed body and confirmed the murder of Judge Al-Jirani, who was shot in the chest.
