Ex-Saudi official says MBS suggested killing former king with 'poison ring'
The Saudi government responded by describing Saad al-Jabri as "a discredited former government official with a long history of fabricating.”
A former senior Saudi intelligence official has accused Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of once bragging that he could have the late King Abdullah killed to pave the way for his father to ascend the throne.
In an interview with CBS’s “60 Minutes” on Sunday, Saad al-Jabri described Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler as “a psychopath killer in the Middle East with infinite resources.” Jabri alleged that Prince Mohammed, also known as MBS, suggested killing the king during a 2014 meeting with then-intelligence chief Prince Mohammed bin Nayef.
