Nimr execution is Saudi “crime” says Iran-backed Iraqi militia

BAGHDAD, Jan 2:   Saudi Arabia’s ruling family committed a crime by executing Shi’ite cleric Nimr al-Nimr, the leader of a powerful Iranian-backed Iraqi militia said today, according to al-Ahd TV.    “The execution of Sheikh al-Nimr is a crime that is added to the criminal record of Al Saud,” Kataib Hezbollah’s leader Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes said.    Al-Ahd is owned by another Iranian backed group, Asaib Ahl al-Haq.
