Things Come To A Head In Saudi Arabia

They found a torso, only more so.

headSaudi police found a human head in the car park just near Masjid Al Haram (grand mosque) in the Gulf Kingdom. A few minutes later, they found a headless body around one km away and police believe they belong to each other.

Police rushed to the grand mosque park in the western town of Makkah after receiving calls by shocked visitors that they had seen a human head inside the park.

An extensive search resulted in the discovery of the headless body in a nearby
hill around one km away.

“We believe the head belongs to this body. The body had apparently snapped off the body because of decomposition and rolled down to the park due to the rain,” Makkah police spokesman Lt Colonel Abdul Mohsen Al Miman said.

I’m not sure what the weirdest part of this story is:

  • Saudi police just happened to find a head in a car park
  • Police “believe” the head belongs to a headless body found one km away, as if it isn’t freaking obvious already
  • The police spokesman explains what he thinks happened, as in why the head was found away from the body, but does not seem to think the discovery of a lifeless body to begin with merits an explanation (I guess it was just a witch)
