A Saudi court sentenced a local married man to death after he was convicted of raping several little boys, the Filipino Times reported on 2nd January 2020.
The court of appeals in the Western Makkah city supported a death verdict issued earlier by a court in nearby Jeddah city after evidence showed the man had raped children in the two cities and other areas.
Police arrested the man after the father of a victim reported him, telling police that the rapist had given money to his son to keep silent about the crime.
Police found that the rapist hunted little boys near their houses and took each of them to a deserted place where he raped them and then gave them money so they would not tell their parents.
Newspapers said the man, in his 40s, is married and has children, adding that the death sentence has to be endorsed by the Supreme Court and the Monarch.
