Saudi Arabia executes woman convicted of 'sorcery'
Saudi authorities have executed a woman convicted of practicing magic and sorcery

The Saudi Interior Ministry says in a statement the execution took place on Monday, but gave no details on the woman's crime.

The London-based al-Hayat daily, however, quoted Abdullah al-Mohsen, chief of the religious police who arrested the woman, as saying she had tricked people into thinking she could treat illnesses, charging them $800 per session.
