Saudi Interior Minister denies plans to establish a national security court
2006-09-22
(KUNA) -- Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul-Aziz deneied on Thursday any plans to establish a national security court. According to Saudi Press Agency (SPA), Prince Nayef said "there is no such thing as a national security court," noting that there were only deliberations between the Supreme Judicial Council and the ministries of Justice and Interior regarding the selection of some judges who will handle security cases.

As for claims in the foreign media regarding the cancellation of Saudi Arabia's "religious police," he said "they mean the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice" and canceling it will never take place. On Wednesday, the second general meeting for the commission's officials concluded its activities under the patronage of Prince Nayef.
