Saad Aljabri, former Saudi Arabian intelligence official, said in an interview with CBS's '60 Minutes' that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is a 'psychopath.'
While he is no longer in Saudi Arabia, however, his family is, and he says they have been paying the price. While he was able to get out, his son and daughter who planned to go to college in the U.S. were sent to Saudi prisons instead. He says MBS then tracked down his son-in-law, who was out of the country but taken back to Saudi Arabia.
"They even asked him a question, who do you think we should arrest and torture so Dr. Saad can come back to the kingdom?" Khalid Aljabdri said. "And he told him, I want to assassinate King Abdullah. I get a poison ring from Russia. It's enough for me just to shake hand with him and he will be done," Aljabri recalled MBS saying. Meanwhile, Aljabri is in the middle of litigation, asentities are suing him for fraud, claiming that he stole up to half a billion dollars from the government.
