AFP, RIYADH: A Saudi investigation into the worst disaster in the history of the hajj pilgrimage is yet to end, official media reported Monday, more than three weeks after a stampede killed 1,791 people.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef “was reassured of the progress of the ongoing investigation”, the Saudi Press Agency said, in a rare update after he met on Sunday night with the investigative committee.
“He directed the members of the committee to continue the efforts exerted to come to the reasons behind the accident,” SPA said.
