Beheaded, then crucified

Saudi Arabia beheaded a man yesterday and then crucified his body. Daily Mail reports,

He was allegedly forced to confess after the authorities threatened to torture his mother.

He is the 28th person to be beheaded there this year.

Seven juveniles were arrested and convicted for armed robbery and sentenced to death in the Southern city of Abha after their appeals to the king were rejected.

One of the youths was interviewed by a human rights agency nine hours before his execution.

'We were forced to make confessions. We were mistreated by the investigators - they took our clothes and it was winter. They tortured us by suspending us from chains on the wall.

'They also used psychological torture such as threatening they would bring in our mothers and torture them in front of us.
