Islam Times - Saudi King might be already dead claim reports

Islam Times - According to reports coming from Riyadh King Abdullah’s health would have seriously deteriorated over the past days, to the point where the Crown Prince had to stepped in his shoes and attend the annual Eid Al Adha reception on his behalf.

Given the importance and significance of such a gathering his absence prompted rumours King Abdullah was quite literally at death’s door.

Some sources have went as far as claiming that the King has been clinically dead for several days, stressing that officials were merely attempting to delay the inevitable.

Observers have confirmed that Prince Salman’ stepping forward as the King’s representative during Eid proved to which point the King’s health had deteriorated.

King Abdullah has been mostly absent over the past month.

The King has been seen as very frail this year and news of his imminent death will unlikely generate much surprise.
