Saudi Prince Detains Senior Members of Royal Family

"MbS has apparently had his uncle — previous Crown Prince Muhammad, until he was removed for MbS to take his place — arrested, along with his son Prince Nawaf bin Nayef. But most shockingly, he’s had his very popular uncle Prince Ahmad — his biggest threat to the throne, and King Salman’s only full brother, also arrested. For treason.

If correct, this is really serious because treason can be a capital offence. And David Kirkpatrick of the NYT is usually very measured and spot on."
