Sibat to stand trial!
Amnesty International lets us know that the Supreme Court of Saudi Arabia decided not to ratify the death sentence of Ali Hussein Sibat, a Lebanese man accused of “sorcery”.
The court decided that the death sentence for ‘Ali Hussain Sibat was inappropriate because there was no proof that others were harmed as a result of his actions. Ali will now be retried in a lower court to consider commutation of his death sentence and his release and deportation to Lebanon.
