21 January 2015 :

Saudi Arabia beheaded one of its citizens for murder in its 12th execution this year, warning it would mete out the same fate to perpetrators of similar crimes.
Mansour Bin Awad bin Ziniegih Al Jabri was sentenced to death after being convicted of shooting dead another Saudi in a family dispute, the interior ministry said.
Authorities carried out the sentence in the central Qassim region, the ministry said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.
The government is committed “to maintaining security, realizing justice and implementing God’s law on those who shed blood,” the ministry said.
“It warns others tempted to carry out any similar act that their fate will be the same legitimate punishment.”
