RIYADH: A wanted terrorist involved in a number of crimes, including murder, in the Al-Awamiyah district of Qatif has been arrested, the Ministry of Interior said on Saturday.
The suspect, Zaki bin Salman Hussein Zuwiri, had opened fire at security patrols and centers besides assaulting and robbing people of their vehicles at gunpoint, which had resulted in the killing of an expatriate around three years ago, said a ministry spokesman.
The suspect had also allegedly kidnapped an expatriate three years ago and taken him to a farm, where he shot him in the legs before fleeing with his car, the spokesman said.
He is also involved in looting of shops at gunpoint and kidnapping and raping a minor, he added.
The ministry reaffirmed the security forces’ determination to continue their duties in pursuing anyone seeking to disrupt public order and destabilizing security.
