Al Saud Family

A prince of Saudi Arabia's ruling Al Saud family was given lashes in a prison in Jeddah as a court-ordered punishment, a Saudi newspaper reported on Wednesday, less than a month after the kingdom executed another prince for murder.

Militants escalated their campaign against Saudi Arabia's ruling Al Saud family with three suicide attacks in a single day, in the biggest challenge to the kingdom's internal security since it crushed an al-Qaida insurgency a decade ago.
