British police, who trained colleagues from Saudi Arabia, contributed to the capture of 14 people who now face the death penalty. Such suspicions were expressed by a number of deputies of the British Parliament, reports The Independent.
Ex-labour leader ed Miliband wrote to Prime Minister Theresa may a letter in which he asked her “personal appeal to the Saudi king” with a request to prevent killing people.
The conservative Andrew Mitchell and liberal Democrat Tom Break demanded that the British police reported to Parliament that specifically are training Saudi guards.
According to human rights activists, 14 of the prisoners recently transferred to the prison in Riyadh. This means that in a short time they could be executed, the edition notes. Among those sentenced to capital punishment with a disability and a student.
The death penalty in the Kingdom is provided for serious crimes — murder, smuggling and distribution of narcotics, rape, and several others. In Saudi Arabia the majority of persons sentenced to capital punishment beheaded.
