A gang of seven Arab expatriates in Saudi Arabia will be lashed 700 times each and jailed seven years for committing a series of thefts in the kingdom, local newspapers reported on Friday.
Police arrested the gang leader, who led them to the remaining members and confessed to charges of pickpocketing and burglary, they said.
A court in Riyadh sentenced the seven to 700 lashes with the whip and seven years in prison to be followed by deportation, the report said without identifying them. Emirates Business
