Saudi Arabia has executed five of its nationals after convicting them of terrorism-related offences, news agency Reuters reported on Saturday. The individuals were accused of joining a foreign organisation designated as terrorist, attacking security forces and supporting attacks inside the kingdom.

Further details about the five nationals and their alleged involvement in the offences have not yet emerged. The available report did not identify the organisation they were accused of joining or provide details about the attacks linked to the cases.

The executions come after Saudi Arabia put two Bangladeshi nationals to death earlier this week. They were convicted of committing alleged “immoral acts” inside a mosque in the holy city of Mecca.

A Gulf News report identified the two Bangladeshi nationals as Nazrul Islam Abdul Basir and Siti Akhtar. The man and woman were found guilty and sentenced under ta'zir, a form of punishment under Islamic law.

The executions reportedly took place without prior notification to the Bangladeshi authorities. Bangladesh claimed it had not been informed about the matter beforehand.

According to Bangladeshi news outlet The Daily Star, the Bangladesh Consulate General in Jeddah has formally sought acknowledgement of the executions from Saudi authorities.

The consulate's move comes amid questions over the lack of advance communication with Bangladesh. However, the available report did not provide further details about the circumstances surrounding the executions or the response from Saudi officials.

Saudi Arabia has carried out executions in cases involving various criminal offences. However, details about individual cases depend on official announcements and reports from news agencies.

In the latest terrorism-related cases, authorities have yet to disclose further information about the five Saudi nationals. The available reports also do not provide additional details about the allegations against the two Bangladeshi nationals beyond their conviction for alleged acts inside the mosque.

The Bangladesh Consulate General's request for acknowledgement remains the latest reported diplomatic development in the case involving the two Bangladeshi nationals.
