RIYADH, Oct 14: Saudi Arabia has extradited at least three Americans with alleged links to terrorism to the United States, Interior Minister Prince Naif bin Abdul Aziz said on Tuesday.

“We have handed over to the United States the American citizens that we found and who are implicated in affairs concerning the United States,” said the minister.

Asked whether those handed over were implicated in terror acts, the minister told a press gathering in Riyadh last night: ‘‘Yes, that’s what is said about them.’’
