Two beheaded for theft and murder in Jeddah

Two people have been beheaded in Jeddah for theft and murder.  Mohammed Barmil from India and Bandar Nikar from Sri Lanka entered the home of Mariam Hussein, a Saudi woman, suffocated her and stole her money and jewellery. 

Reports say the two entered with the help of Hussein's Sri Lankan maid, Halima Abd-el-Kader.  The beheadings bring to 59 the number of executions in Saudi Arabia this year.
