All are equal before the law: Saudi Arabia executes PRINCE for murder

October 19, 2016

Riyadh, Oct 19: A Saudi prince was executed in Riyadh on Tuesday after a court found him guilty of shooting dead a fellow Saudi national, official media reported, in a rare example of a ruling family member subjected to the death penalty in the modern world.

lawPrince Turki bin Saud al-Kabir had pleaded guilty to shooting Adel al-Mohaimeed after a brawl, the Ministry of Interior said in a statement on state news agency SPA.

Members of Saudi Arabia's ruling family have global reputation. The last prominent case of a royal family member's execution was that of Faisal bin Musaid al-Saud, who assassinated his uncle, King Fasial, in 1975.

A list made by a western news agency says that the prince is the 134th individual to be executed this year. The Interior ministry said that it would ensure to everyone that the government was "keen to keep order, stabilize security and bring about justice through implementing the rules prescribed by Allah".

The victim's family denied offers of 'blood money' and demanded justice instead.

On social media, some Saudis said that they never imagined such a thing would happen while others said it indicated the quality of their justice system.

A prominent Saudi lawyer tweeted saying, "The greatest thing is that the citizen sees the law applied to everyone, and that there are not big people and other small people."

The royal family is estimated to be in the thousands. While they receive a monthly stipend, not all of them hold important government posts.

“The government.. is keen to keep order, stabilise security and bring about justice through implementing the rules prescribed by Allah...,” said the ministry statement.

Sharia Law is divine law and no one can change it..
if some one implement it, there will be no injustice to the people of the world...
But the people who doesnt want the public to implement cos if they know then the rulers will face problems '
Thats Y the haters and the one who wants to rule over the people will alwz portray sharia law as evil...
If people learn individuallly, You will know the reality of the people who are in power

Bengaluru, Jul 11: The Bharatiya Janata Party led government of Karnataka is planning to ban cow slaughter as well as the sale and consumption of beef in the state by bringing Prevention of Cow Slaughter and Preservation Bill, 2012.

"Many states have passed the Anti-Cow Slaughter Bill. We are preparing to implement it in Karnataka as well. The state government will soon implement a ban on cow slaughter, sale and consumption of beef on the lines of many other states," said Prabhu Chauhan, the state's Animal Husbandry Minister.

The Anti-Cow Slaughter Act is already in place in several states like Gujarat, Delhi, Haryana, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh among others.

Last month, the Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government passed a draft ordinance to prevent cow slaughter, providing maximum rigorous imprisonment of 10 years and a fine up to Rs 5 lakh.
The Uttar Pradesh Cabinet Cow Slaughter Prevention (Amendment) Ordinance, 2020 aims at making the existing Uttar Pradesh Prevention of Cow Slaughter Act, 1955 more effective towards cow safety.

In Karnataka, the BJP-led government had promised to ban cow slaughter in its manifesto for 2018 state assembly election.

"The government will form a team of experts to look into once the current pandemic situation eases," Chauhan stated, adding that if necessary, the team of experts will visit states like Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat.

The then BS Yediyurappa-led BJP government had passed the Karnataka Prevention of Cow Slaughter and Protection Bill in 2010 but it failed to get presidential approval. Three years later, the Bill was withdrawn by the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government.

"I will discuss this matter with Chief Minister and if this pandemic situation eases, by next session, if not by upcoming assembly session, we will try to bring Karnataka Prevention of Slaughter and Preservation of Cattle Bill," Chauhan added.

Mangaluru, May 23: In order to ensure that students do not miss out on their studies due to educational institutions being shut owing to the coronavirus lockdown, Dakshina Kannada Pre-university College Principles Association (DKPUCPA) is conducting online classes on YouTube for pre-university students.

The online lessons are shot by lecturers at St Aloysius College and the lectures are then uploaded on YouTube enabling students to watch them online.

"The whole world is currently in a crucial situation because of COVID-19, and because of the lockdown, all are forced to stay indoors. Usually, we used to conduct lectures in a class full of students, but now it is a new experience that we are providing the same information to students in their absence," Rajaram Rao, a lecturer said while speaking to news agency.

He said at present these classes are being conducted for second year pre-university students.

If any student has a doubt on any concept, he said they can contact the teachers. "At present, students also are getting information about the teachers who have uploaded the videos. All the information about the teachers is already being uploaded on the system so that they can contact the teacher," he said.

Dhanya, a student, hailed the DKPUCPA for the setting up of the online classes despite the prevailing situation.

"The teachers who have taught in these classes have taught very well, as if they are teaching right in front of us. It has been very useful for me during this time," she said.

The nationwide lockdown imposed to combat the threat posed by the coronavirus pandemic has been extended to May 31.
