03 April 2014 :

a Saudi court sentenced two suspected al-Qaeda members to death for the 2007 murder of four French expatriates near the western city of Medina, a judicial source said.
The two men were convicted of shooting dead the four French nationals while they were on a desert excursion from their homes in the capital Riyadh.
Another 12 men convicted of helping the attackers were jailed for periods of between three and 23 years, and banned from travelling abroad for a period equal to their sentence.
The defendants were in court for the verdict in the trial, which began in December 2011, as were relatives of the victims and French consular staff, the source added.
Two of the dead worked for an electrics company, one was a teacher at the French school in Riyadh and the fourth was a teenager.
Police killed the suspected mastermind of the attack, Walid Motlaq al-Raddadi, a 23-year-old Saudi, in Medina in April 2007.
