Relatives of the four Bangladeshis killed during last month’s suicide bomb attack in the Kingdom, reached Macca to perform Hajj this year as guests of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman, reports Arab News.
The Bangladeshis were killed during an attack by terrorists on a mosque used by members of the Special Emergency Forces in Abha in August. Islamic Affairs Minister Saleh Al-Asheikh issued the orders on behalf of the king.
Abdullah bin Mudlij Al-Mudalij, executive director of the program, held a reception for Zahed Iqbal, the father of one of the deceased Bangladeshis. He said the Hajj offer was meant to honour the martyrs and their families.
