Sharia law in SA man's murder

Nadine Bolton (29) lost her husband Paul (33) in a Saudi shooting. His killer, Mahommed Badel (27) was to be executed unless Nadine accepted what is known in Saudi Arabia as blood money. During a sharia court hearing she chose the latter, leaving the killer's fate to King Fahd Bin Abdul Aziz. She decided to spare his life, but did not forgive him. Murderers are beheaded in public in Saudi Arabia, in accordance with sharia law. Paul was gunned down in his office at the Al Safi-Danone dairy farm, owned by Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal, in March. The couple have two boys aged six and two. Al Safi-Danone, the largest dairy farm in the world, where Paul worked as the supervising lab technician, also paid Nadine an unknown amount of money. Badel was a trainee lab technician and worked under Paul. He was already involved in quite a few disputes at work and thought Paul was behind the plot to have him fired and therefore he killed him. Nadine lived with Paul for four years in Saudi Arabia.
