#2 Thought he might be one of the famous "alk runners". Then again, seeing it's Saudi, he might be. This is from our friends at Amnesia International. On 4 February, the Minister of Interior, Prince Naif bin 'Abdul 'Aziz, announced on Saudi Arabian television that William Sampson, Alexander Mitchell and Raf Schyvens were under arrest and that they had ''confessed'' to bombings in Riyadh. The bombings on 17 and 22 November 2000 resulted in the death of one man and injury to many others. The announcement was followed by film footage of the three men showing William Sampson and Alexander Mitchell 'confessing' to having carried out the bombings, and adding that Raf Schyvens was also involved in one of the bombings. |
