The convicts, Pakistani nationals, had attacked the private sector firm, tied up two guards, assailing them and killing a Bangladeshi guard, the Saudi Interior Ministry said.
After investigations, the five were referred to a competent court that found them guilty and sentenced them to death.The verdict was later upheld by appeals and supreme courts, and approved by a royal order, making it final. Their executions were carried out Tuesday in the city of Mecca.Saudi Arabia applies the death penalty against convicts in cases of murder and terror attacks as well as drug smuggling and trafficking.In January, Saudi authorities said they had executed four Ethiopian expatriates found guilty of murdering a Sudanese national.
