Good job Saudi arabia

STONE AGE LAWS

He asked for this.Good job done Saudi Arabia.

Pakistani Government should learn something from Saudi Government and immediately hang all those criminals who are on death roll since long so that other to be criminals should hesitate a little before committing any heinous crime.

good job

If he was from a European country Saudis would have let him go. They can only execute Pakistanis.

It was just a poor carrier that was hanged, and as usual there was no defense council provided. The Saudis should go after the local drug pushers and hang them too.

Even such strict punishment has failed to prevent these crimes.

What role Government of Pakistan plays if some one is charged for capital punishment overseas? Do they provide a counsel? Do they meat and discuss with the person charged with such a crime? Do they evaluate evidence against the alleged perpetrator? What kind of influence do they use to get the person transferred and try in Pakistan? The answer is none of above. Pakistanis do not deserve respect from their own Government. The Government only wants foreign exchange. Pakistanis are aggressive, educated and bold compared to the lot in Arab world but alas their government cares less. I am positive most of the innocent people are executed as they made governmental functionaries angry. They may not have carried the drugs but were supplanted in place of someone favorable to them. That's why evidence has to be evaluated and case tried in a fair forum of justice.

@Andy: Crimes cannot be stopped altogether, it can be discouraged & this is what the intention is behind such strong punishment, I think Saudi Arabia is justified with such strong punishment. However one thing should be done to meet justice that is to verify beyond doubt that the accused person was knowingly responsible. At times friends & relatives take advantage to send banned commodities through peoples totally unaware of it.

@IMTIAZ SYED: I fully agree with your comment. Even if the guy is a criminal, he is still a Pakistani citizen. It is the duty of the Pakistani government to provide him consular visit and look into the case. My heart just shivers to imagine what the guy must be going through if he was framed. It is just so so sad.

Aftab bhai and Imtiaz bhai: Very well said. We all know the reputation of SA and other like countries in the region. Shame on them!
