Ex-spy: Crown Prince is a ‘psychopath’ and a ‘killer’

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman is a ‘‘psychopath’’ who once plotted to kill the Gulf state’s King with a poisoned ring, a former top spy has claimed in an explosive TV interview. Saad al-Jabri, who is currently living in exile in Canada, also said he fears for his own life as he believes that Mohammad bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler, wishes to assassinate him. Speaking to CBS’ 60 Minutes programme, Jabri claimed that during a 2014 meeting with Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, another Saudi royal, the Crown Prince threatened to murder King Abdullah.
