Saudi tells militants to repent or die
Sun 20 June, 2004 09:34
By Ghaida Ghantous

RIYADH (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia has warned Muslim militants they will share
the fate of their slain leader unless they repent, as al Qaeda vowed renewed
"holy war" in the kingdom.

Al Qaeda's leader in Saudi Arabia, Abdulaziz al-Muqrin, was shot dead by
Saudi forces on Friday along with three other prominent militants hours
after they beheaded American hostage Paul Johnson, whose body has still not
been found.

"We tell this deviant group and others that if they do not return to the
right path, they will meet the same fate or worse," Saudi Arabia's de facto
ruler Crown Prince Abdullah said late on Saturday.

"Security forces will deal with them, God willing, and with every aggressor
inside or abroad," he added.

State television showed the bloodied corpses of the four militants, saying
they had been behind a wave of violence against foreigners in the Gulf
state, a key U.S. ally and the world's biggest oil exporter.

"The government is strong and will eradicate the enemy and cleanse the
country of them," Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef said. "God willing,
we will be victorious."

"HOLY STRUGGLE"

Al Qaeda confirmed the killings of Muqrin and three others in an Internet
statement on Saturday but voiced defiance.

"The Mujahideen are continuing the jihad (holy struggle) that they have
pledged to God and the killing of their brothers will not weaken their
resolve but only increase their determination and commitment," it said.

Al Qaeda, led by the fugitive Osama bin Laden who is blamed for the
September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, has vowed to expel
"infidels" from the birthplace of Islam. Muqrin had warned that 2004 would
be "bloody".

Twelve other militants were arrested on Friday, including a senior figure
suspected of involvement in the 2000 bombing of the U.S. warship Cole off
the coast of neighbouring Yemen.

Saudi foreign policy adviser Adel al-Jubeir said Riyadh would pursue Islamic
extremists without mercy.

"We believe that with this blow to al Qaeda in Saudi Arabia yesterday, we
have substantially weakened their organisation. We will continue to pursue
them with vigour until we eliminate them from our midst," Jubeir said. "We
will show no mercy."

He said reports on Friday that Johnson's body had been found were incorrect.
Saudi security forces were still searching for the corpse, believed to be in
the Riyadh area.

The 49-year-old aviation engineer was killed after Saudi authorities refused
to free jailed Islamists by a Friday deadline. Muqrin's cell posted
photographs of Johnson's severed head on a Web site, six days after he was
kidnapped in Riyadh.

Johnson was the third American killed in Riyadh in the past 10 days. He
worked for defence contractor Lockheed Martin making Apache helicopter
gunships, used by U.S. and Israeli forces.

The Saudi Interior Ministry named the three militants killed with Muqrin as
Faisal al-Dakheel, Turki al-Muteiri and Ibrahim al-Dreihim. Dakheel had been
wanted for killings including that of an American in Riyadh, it said.

Muteiri was one of the gunmen who escaped after an attack on foreigners in
the oil city of Khobar in May wich killed 22 civilians, and Dreihim helped
prepare the suicide bombing of an expatriate residential compound in Riyadh
in November, it said.

The ministry said the four had been tracked down to a petrol station in the
Malazz district of central Riyadh. One Saudi security officer was killed and
two wounded in the shootout.

Muqrin, driven by hatred of Washington and its Arab allies, was a veteran of
Bosnia's 1992-95 war and one of a hit squad which tried to kill Egyptian
President Hosni Mubarak in Ethiopia in 1995, said militant expert Mohsen
al-Awajy.
