Because of "terrorist thinking" in Saudi Arabia almost 40 people are sentenced to death. One of them is being brutally executed for a serious crime.

Saudi Arabia executed 37 people convicted of "terrorism". The death sentences had been carried out in the capital Riyadh, the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, in the province of Kassim and in the eastern province, said the Ministry of Interior in a statement.

The executed were all found guilty of having acquired "terrorist, extremist thinking," it said. The most common method of execution in Saudi Arabia is beheading with a saber. As the ministry announced, one of the convicts was crucified; a method of execution intended only for particularly serious crimes.
 
Several (reputable) news agencies are indeed reporting about 37 executions. The death sentences were supposedly passed on very questionable grounds.

According to the sources I checked, all of the condemned were beheaded. One of them was crucified AFTER he lost his head (meaning he did not die from the crucifixion but was already dead when it happened). This seems to be repeatedly practiced in very severe cases.

The authorities over there however seem not to give too much on human dignity. Just remember the guy who was cut apart with a chainsaw last year.
