In Saudi Arabia, security forces have arrested five more suspects in connection with the May 12 Riyadh suicide attacks that left 34 people dead including nine bombers, according to a newspaper Saturday. 

 

The arrests, carried out in two raids on Wednesday and Friday, were made in Medina, where at least eleven other suspects were arrested a few days earlier, Al-Watan reported. 

 

The daily, quoting unnamed security officials, said in the first raid, two men were nabbed at an internet cafe, while in the second two men and a woman were arrested at a private home. (Albawaba.com)
