Saudi Billionaire Princes Sleeping On The Floor After Corruption Arrest(Photos by Explorers(m): 12:35pm On Nov 07, 2017
Saudi Arabia announced the arrest on Saturday night of the prominent billionaire investor Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, plus at least 10 other princes, four ministers and tens of former ministers.

The announcement of the arrests was made over Al Arabiya, the Saudi-owned satellite network whose broadcasts are officially approved.

Prince Alwaleed’s arrest is sure to send shock waves both through the kingdom and the world’s major financial centers.




Asleep on the floor of their 'luxury' five star prison 11 Saudi princes, government ministers and businessmen await their fate following their arrest in the biggest anti-corruption purge of the kingdom's modern history.

In a photo obtained exclusively by DailyMail. com the men are seen gathered together at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, inside one of its glittering function rooms wrapped in blankets and sleeping on thin mattresses.

Saudi sources say that among those photographed in the room are billionaire investor Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, who is a nephew of the king, worth an estimated $18 billion and owns stakes in Twitter, Lyft and Citigroup.

The photograph was revealed as President Trump went all-in supporting the man who ordered the mass arrests, Crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, the ferociously ambitious 32-year-old heir to the throne.

The men appear to be sleeping in this room, which last month hosted the Future Investment Conference.

Among those who used the event to highlight the kingdom's future was Prince Al-Waleed who now finds himself sleeping on its floor.




The Ritz Carlton in Riyadh was emptied of guests on Saturday night as the round-up of allegedly corrupt ministers and princes got under way.

President Trump visited Saudi Arabia in May, and it was where he met Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who was then deputy crown prince and is now crown prince and the man behind the 'anti-corruption' crackdown.

Yeah, I can see it. It's definitely not about corruption. It's conspiracy against others to have power all for one's self and further one's interest unhindered. You think the one who ordered their arrest is innocent? Like hell he is!

Anyways, wetin concern me with Saudi. Even if it burns, I don't care. grin

He takes his time to create threads that are informative. To me, that's commendable

If you can't do same,don't hate on people who do so.

Or did my hailing him reduce your account balance?

Can such a thing happen in this country?
The opposition will term it witch hunting, the supporters will call it wizard hunting and the ruling party will call it corruption crackdown.

But one thing is sure such a thing can't happen until we the masses change our mindset and support the ruling party.
If Apc can witch hunt Ex Pdp governors and official now that they are the ruling party and tomorrow if Pdp becomes the ruling party and do the same thing.Corruption will be eradicated little by little with the incumbent been cautious and careful that tomorrow if his tenure ends,that his successor will turn him up and witch hunt him too

I was watching Aljazeera's analysis on this crack-down some days ago and many of the contributors were of the opinion that it was a move by the crown prince himself to consolidate his grip on power by doing away with many of the guys that could stand in his. Even certain international news magazines had similar opinions. This is an anti-corruption war with a tinge of a massive royal rumble(the kind you see in WWE),if you ask me,and the crown prince is giving all the others a bloody nose for the fun of it. That is why he is making them sleep on the floor.

You guys should read my post clearly to see that it has nothing to do with hate or jealousy. It was just showing you guys that his post are gotten from sources which he quotes. Praising him without acknowledging the original authors is tantamount to saying he wrote the post himself.

But I guess some people won't get the gist.

The Royal family of Saudi Arabia are Identity thieves and Fraudsters. They are not the real Arabs. they are from Khazaraian empire in Russia. look down below the pictures-- The Original Arabs are Dark Skinned people. they are still in Saudi Arabia. and they are the Real descendants of Ismael. don't be deceived by mainstream media.
