FBI: Saudi Arabia 'almost certainly' helps citizens charged with crimes flee the U.S.

When traffic slowed his gold Lexus in Portland, Ore., Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah swerved into a center turn lane and accelerated to about 70 mph, according to a county prosecutor, almost triple the speed limit.

Saudi Arabia has long denied involvement in Noorah’s case and others that appear to be extractions, as clandestine removals are called. But in aon Friday, the FBI said that officials of the Persian Gulf nation “almost certainly” help their citizens accused of committing crimes, including manslaughter, rape and possession of child pornography, to flee the United States.

The FBI reached much the same conclusion. Its bulletin said that Saudi Arabian officials are “unlikely to alter their practice of assisting the flight of Saudi citizens in legal trouble from the United States” anytime soon, unless the U.S. government directly addresses the issue with its ally. The two nations do not have an extradition treaty.

The senators have filed legislation that would urge the administration to expel from the United States any Saudi diplomat involved in the removal of Noorah or Ali Hussain Alhamoud, another Saudi citizen who fled to his homeland after being indicted in Oregon on multiple sex crime charges. The bill would require the State Department and U.S. attorney general to investigate any involvement of the Saudi consulate in Los Angeles in the two men’s disappearances.

But for Noorah, a young man on a Saudi government scholarship, the prospect of slipping a monitor and fleeing the United States without a passport would be daunting without state-backed support. U.S. Marshals Service investigators suspect that Saudi officials whisked him out of the country on a private flight.against Noorah on behalf of Smart’s estate.

I hope that the Saudi embassy in Washington will file a lawsuit against this stupid and stupid statement and the accusation without evidence

our condolences to the family of the deceased . This accident must be painful for the family But make sure Saudi Arabia regrets this and will not help in covering the crime, but how this escape must be subject to careful investigation without throwing accusations haphazardly.

Saudi Arabia respects the American judiciary, but it has the right, like any other country, to defend its citizens abroad. Trump asked Sweden to release the singer Rocky 5 months ago after he was convicted of violence in Stockholm

Americans themselves can't trust fbi due to many reasons, that the american media talked about before. The report is incomplete and does not specify what Saudi officials may have done, and till now there's no official statement about this matter.

The FBI was the reason for the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan and other countries, and the result was that its reports were not related to the truth. SA is a strategic ally of the USA and will not allow violations of the laws of friendly countries or any other country

FBI is not a reliable source,these accusation are not based on tangible evidence or real facts,its impossible for anyone or any criminal to go through airport procedures without being stopped or detained, till now there's no official statement about this matter.

Saudi Arabia and the US has a very long term strong relations that can be hardly influenced by a biased non proved FBI report. There is no whatsoever evidence to support your claim.

OKBlu_ Just like 9/11

The cia as well ? No ?

So does Costa Rica but no one gives a fuck.

Omg that's so true. The system is so bias, phobic and psychotic to religious studies from Saudi. Its the women who don't know where their husbands are, soliciting or something like that. Its not my friends these people now or days. I don't know them.

Thanks to Trump, MbS, and Kushner.

Saudi citizens awaiting trial on felony charges shouldn't get bail.

Now do the 9/11 hijackers

Because of course.

We know, the Cheeto Crime Family is banking on it!

Osama. Bin. Laden.
