A Saudi Arabian prince has called for the prosecution of officials, including the former head of the Royal Court, who supported the coup in Egypt. Prince Saud Bin Seif Al-Nasr made his calls on Twitter and named former courtier Khalid Al-Twijri as one of those who should be brought to account, claimed Ikhwanonline.com on Friday.

In a series of tweets, the grandson of the late King Saud Bin Abdulaziz, alleged that around "$20 billion was stolen and divided between Al-Twijri and the Egyptian Generals." Despite the "billions showered on Egyptian generals like rain," he continued, "no single problem has been resolved. The Egyptians are still suffering from electricity, gas and bread crises. It is clear that the gang headed by him [Al-Twijri] stole the money with the Egyptian generals."
Why, he asked, are the officials responsible for this waste of Saudi wealth not asking Al-Twijri and the coup generals in Egypt about the money? "No one knows the nature of this aid – a gift, a loan or anything else," he added.
In terms of the lucrative Suez Canal Project, the prince claimed that no feasibility study was carried out. "What these people have done was merely a waste of money and tyranny for the country, the people and the Muslims. They have to be questioned." And, he insisted, brought to account.
