CONTROVERSY | The woman was convicted of murder Sri Lanka withdraws its ambassador to Saudi Arabia after the execution of an employee

Sri Lanka has recalled its ambassador to Saudi Arabia after the execution by beheading of a maid of nationality by the death of a child who was in charge in 2005, according to the government. Rizana Nafeek was beheaded in Dawadmy city near the capital Riyadh after being sentenced to death in 2007. He was accused by her Saudi employer killing his newborn daughter while she was giving him a bottle. "We want to show our displeasure by not listening to the government's appeal to save Rizana Nafeek" said Karunatilake Amunugama, Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Sri Lankan government appealed against the conviction, but the Supreme Court upheld the ruling Saudi Arabia in 2010. The child's mother rejected the request to forgive the employee, which is the most important criterion when considering the release of a murderer in Saudi Arabia, said a senior official of the government of Sri Lanka, speaking on condition of anonymity. The Saudi Interior Ministry said the baby was strangled after a dispute between the maid and the baby's mother. Hundreds of women in Sri Lanka's capital, Colombo, protested against the execution of Nafeek and criticized the government should have done more to demand her release. He expects more protests on Friday. The mother of the employee has asked the government to help you bring your body back to Sri Lanka, according to local media. However, government officials said they had been buried in Saudi Arabia. Usually households are highly dependent on Saudi domestic workers from countries in Africa and South Asia. There have been reported cases of domestic abuse in families that abuse their employees and then they attacked the children of their employers. The NGO Human Rights Watch has condemned the execution and said Nafeek was a victim of the deficiencies in the judicial system in Saudi Arabia. In the country, a U.S. ally, an absolute monarchy ruled that follows the strict Wahhabi school of Islam. Judges decisions based on their own interpretation of sharia, or Islamic law, rather than a written legal code.
