Saudi prince quizzed over murder of servant 'who slept at foot of master's bed'

More evidence of the "elite's" inherent sociopathy, abusing and even killing slaves (seems to be how this 'servant' was treated) for sadistic fun has always gone on in the upper echelons of society. Western media has been focusing a fair amount on this kind of sadistic activity being carried out by Middle Eastern royalty (see UAE royal family member's sadism for another recent example) which, while no doubt true, may be also for propaganda purposes (all anti-Arab propaganda is good for conditioning us into war with Iran and blindly supporting Israel [sorry to go off-topic, but the whole Israeli assassination squad story has a darkly comic aspect to it in how much Mossad doesn't seem to give a shit any more about being seen in public to do all the messed up stuff that they do... smile for the cameras, brainwashed Mossad asssassins]), there would be a total media blackout if a member of a Western "elite" family did this which has likely occurred many times before. From this Daily Mail article (bigger and more image/symbolism focused posts up soon btw).

Detectives are continuing to question a Saudi prince over his servant's murder as new details about their relationship become known.

Sources have compared it to a master and servant relationship and it has emerged that the aide may have slept on the floor at the foot of his master's bed.

The prince has been held on suspicion of killing the man at the Landmark Hotel in Central London.

Scotland Yard detectives have also seized CCTV footage of an alleged assault by the 33-year-old multi-millionaire on his aide in a hotel lift last month.

Officers are examining the possibility that the servant was the subject of regular abuse from his master.


Sources at the five-star Landmark Hotel told the Mail that last month's incident was recorded and had been handed to murder squad officers.

The episode is believed to have happened about three weeks ago, soon after the Saudi prince - son of a nephew of King Abdullah - and his entourage checked into the hotel.

Police believe the murder happened during a row at the hotel, but they have found no obvious motive. This prompted speculation last night that the servant was subjected to gratuitous violence.

Police are expected to examine whether the aide suffered regular domestic abuse at the hands of his employer.

Scotland Yard refused to comment yesterday about the previous alleged attack. But a hotel source said: 'Police are looking at CCTV from a previous incident in January.'

The suspect, an international playboy, has been staying at the Landmark for three weeks, spending up to £100,000 on five rooms including a £1,000-a-night suite.

It is not the first time that Saudi royals have been accused of mistreating their servants.

Princess Hind al-Fassi and her husband, Turki ibn Abdel Aziz, brother to Saudi Arabia's late ruler, King Fahd, were accused by Egyptian and Filipino employees of mistreatment in 1998.

Several of their servants tried to escape a hotel, saying they had been treated as virtual prisoners. One broke his back when he fell from a rope made of knotted sheets.

The murder inquiry began after post-mortem results showed the 32-year-old victim died of neck and head injuries.

This contradicted claims by Saudi security sources stating the servant's death was caused by an ear injury sustained during a mugging.

But Saudi Arabian government sources last night insisted the prince had no involvement with the man's death. They claimed the servant died after an ear injury, despite post-mortem results revealing the victim was strangled.

'This young prince has nothing to do with the issue,' a security source said.

'Unfortunately, one of his private entourage was mugged in the street. He was cut on his ear, but doctors discharged him from hospital because they thought it was a superficial head wound.

'In fact the injury was very serious and he died later of an internal head injury.'

They were unable to explain how he also came to have been strangled.

Detectives were called to the eight-storey hotel after his body was found by a maid at 4.45pm on Monday.

The prince was arrested five hours later after questions were raised about his account of the incident, which was not witnessed by anyone.

Detectives have been granted more time to question the suspect. As a minor royal he does not qualify for diplomatic immunity.

The Saudi embassy refused to comment yesterday but a senior diplomat is believed to have visited the arrested man in his cell.

UAE Royal Family Member Sheikh Issa Acquitted of Torture Despite Video


I thought this was a pretty good illustration of the sociopathic mentality of some of these royal families who get off on torturing others (he ordered the video be made because he "liked to watch the torture sessions later", "At one point, Issa tells the cameraman to get a close-up. "Get closer. Get closer. Get closer. Let his suffering show,"", showing he, like many of his "elite" counterparts are sociopathic sexual sadists, I'm sure he has amassed many similar videos of him abusing slaves and other unfortunates), and the global establishment's willingness to allow them to continue torturing/abusing with impunity. The story is a bit old now but he was just yesterday acquitted of any wrong doing so I thought it was worth posting quickly. Sheikh Issa bin Zayed al Nahayan is the son of the late President of the UAE, the half brother of Manchester City owner Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, brother of current President of the UAE Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan and brother of the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (pictured below with the sociopathic Arabic "elite" royal families' best buddies in America, the Bush family's GWB [the Bushes are known to be just as sadistic in their abuse of slaves]).

Apparently they somehow (obviously they control the UAE court so it's hardly surprising) successfully claimed he was drugged and was therefore unaware of his actions, when most people are drugged they don't immediately think, "This guy overcharged me for fertilizer! Let's make him eat sand, burn his balls, fire bullets at him, electroshock his anus with a cattle-prod, run over his legs with a car and rape him!". It doesn't make much sense but they can and have been getting away with everything, in particular buying and selling slaves (who do you think those cattle-prods are primarily used on, probably not cattle; well a different kind of cattle they would consider them as) for at least centuries. The Sheik's handlers may have drugged him for this particular incident but it is obviously not the first nor the last time he has done something like this as it appears to come completely natural to him.


Guardian article from earlier in 2009:

The video is especially shocking because it also shows a man in police uniform helping to tie up the victim and hold him down in the middle of the desert. At the start of the torture session, which is believed to have happened some time before 2005, Issa stuffs sand in the victim's mouth and fires a machine gun into the sand around him as the man screams helplessly.

At one point, Issa tells the cameraman to get a close-up. "Get closer. Get closer. Get closer. Let his suffering show," the sheikh says.

Later the sheikh beats the man with a wooden plank with a nail protruding from it, and pours salt in the bloody wounds left by his blows. He also inserts an electric cattle prod in the man's anus and turns it on, and pours lighter fluid over the man's testicles, which he then sets alight. Finally, the man is held down in the sand and a Mercedes is driven over him. The sound of bones breaking can be clearly heard.

The victim, an Afghan grain merchant called Mohammed Shah Poor, apparently survived the experience, because the government later justified taking no action against the sheikh by saying the matter had been settled privately between the two men and each had agreed not to press charges against the other.

Another of Issa's brothers is the interior minister. Despite one police officer helping to carry out the torture, part of the UAE government's statement on the matter said: "All rules, policies and procedures were followed correctly by the police department."

The tape was smuggled out of the UAE by US citizen and Houston businessman Bassam Nabulsi, a former business partner of Issa. Nabulsi claimed he himself was tortured in the UAE after refusing to hand over the videotapes after falling out with the sheikh.

Nabulsi claims Issa ordered Nabulsi's brother to record the torture scene in order to watch it later at his own leisure. Nabulsi is now suing in America for the alleged mistreatment he received.

But the story does not end there. Nabulsi credits US embassy staff with keeping him alive while in prison, but he also says he brought the existence of the torture tape - and the collusion of the police - to the US's attention to little effect, including to a US official assigned to train UAE police.

Chinese Protesters Tortured In 'Black Jails' for Programming

Civil rights protesters in China are being dumped in psychiatric wards where they are forced to take mind-altering drugs and given electric shocks.



[Sky News article. I remember reading something about this a year ago but the media has been focusing on it again recently. The Chinese are simply following the model used by the Russians who did/are doing pretty much the exact same thing as this using their mental institutions, the West aren't innocent of this by any means too with mental asylums being used for furthering research and putting into practice programming with electroshocks, drugs, rape and other trauma-based mind control and brainwashing techniques. I've included another video apart from the Sky News one which shows how young children are even taken for, what the state would probably call "re-education".]

The treatment is handed out to petitioners - victims of corrupt local governments who have come to the cities to seek justice.

They travel thousands of miles to reach Beijing, but instead of being allowed to voice their grievances they are thrown into illegal "black jails" and many end up placed in mental institutions.

"Pain? You don't know pain until you have had 220 volts going through your body," said Hu Guohong, who had come to Beijing to seek compensation for three months' back pay.

He suffered two hours of electric shock for ten consecutive days.

"My whole insides… it felt like my intestines were turning like clothes put through a washing machine," he said.

"There are a lot of people who are locked up there. Just like me, protesters. They round you up and simply dump you in the hospital. If you don't do what they say, you get electrocuted."

Sky News gained access to one of the mental institutions and spoke to those behind the bars of an exercise courtyard.

"Some people in here are not even diagnosed with a mental illness. There are all kinds of cases, but most of us are not ill," one man told us.

Liu Feiyue is a lawyer representing hundreds of those detained.

His home in Wuhan in South China is under surveillance by police and we had to meet secretly late at night.

He says the practice of putting protesters in mental hospitals is widespread.

"They want to stop the protesters from voicing their dissenting views," he said.

"So they lock them up in mental hospitals. This is becoming a serious epidemic in China."

Sky News wrote to the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Health to ask why mental hospitals were being used as dumping grounds for those seeking justice.

We received no answer.

A spokesman at the Chinese Embassy in London said it was "not in a position to respond in this regard".
