a three man tribunal at the Madina court in Saudi Arabia commuted the 2011 death sentence of Lebanese man Ali Hassan Sabat, 46, to 15 years in prison followed by deportation. He was sentenced to death by a court in the western Saudi Arabian town of Madina for deception through witchcraft in 2009. The supreme court overturned the verdict and referred it back to the Madina court.(Sources: Emirates247.com, 23/04/2011)
