FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda “The legal-consular delegation will be sent to Saudi Arabia in connection with the execution of a number of Iranian nationals in the Saudi custody on charges of carrying narcotics,” IRNA quoted the informed source as saying on Wednesday.
The official noted that the detainees in question were deprived of their basic rights in terms of consular contact, their right to have a lawyer or an interpreter.
On April 18, Press TV reported that Saudi officials had executed eight Iranian sailors in the eastern city of Dammam without any legal proceedings.
According to the Saudi Al-Tagheer news channel, the executions were carried out on April 15 on the order of the Saudi Interior Ministry, which has been implicated in the unrest in Syria and the violence in Iraq as well.
On May 30, the Persian-language Tabnak news website reported that Saudi officials in Dammam have executed 10 more Iranian citizens.
The website added that a total of 25 Iranians are kept at Dammam prison and 18 of them have been executed in two stages.
The prisoners are Iranian sailors who were arrested on a fishing boat in international waters 70 miles off the coast of Saudi Arabia six years ago on charges of drug possession.
The serial executions came despite an April 18 telephone conversation between Iran’s Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi and his Saudi counterpart, Saud al-Faisal, where they had discussed the issue and stressed the importance of exercising prudence.
