Dear Editor and Readers,
Just do not get angry over the Be-headings in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Please see what other states of the world have such in-justices or how their justice systems work. There are numerous Western civilized states that do not want IMPARTIAL witnesses or PLEAS from the so called accused , there are unfair trials of all religious individuals in accordance to the states requirements and wishes. Do not be carried away with such events, just read these articles and be assured that we all are powerless in front of the States machinery.

Well I m not surprised at execution in KSA as its law there. In autocratic state the decisions are based on the collective thinking of officials concerned depriving accused of a fair trial. So what could we say ” Amen”

Bravo Rafia… indeed an issue that never gets any airtime… if it isn’t us inside that prison or awaiting execution it doesn’t really matter… Pakistani attitude.

A very sad story but there are many more concealed by them. Its a kind of prejudice or conspiracy as they are adapting everything from west except freedom of speech and respect of human.

Stated in simple words – Saudies are not civilized yet. It will take time. People who live there do not know the meaning of freedom. UN-civilized person start thinks he is better the moment he gets quick money (in this case they got oil money).

The matter of fact is, in KSA sual system exists, the law and rules for alien is far different than saudi. The same thing is the life of saudi infant or child is more precious than any person belong to Asia. So there is no need to cry over this issue. the simple theory is that Asians are in dire need to work in KSA, then whatever the attitude and behavious encouters the worker will have to tolerate. In fact the life there is still like a slave. there are countless persons who are under the control of Kafeel system and are not allowed to go. thery are everyday dying and living, if they run away the livilihood propestects are not so fruitful that they could leave or quit the job. in the result they bear all ill-attidtude and so. we can pray that our countries law n order situation aleriorate then everything becomes smooth and healthy.

@Mutti
A very biased analysis indeed! So as a reaction you are blaming Pakistani Shias for Saudi atrocities against Muslims (Shias + Sunnis) and NON MUSLIMS!!!
Are you really doing justice to yourself?

Dude, there is a HUGE different between death by mistake and intentional murder!
The lady was beaten (there is no room for that) and sentenced as a first degree murderer.

Even if what you say is true the maid was guilty of negligence or ignorance. That is not murder. Also it is evident that the poor woman had no legal help. She should be murdered because she “could not do justice to her job”?
