    Default A rare look inside a Saudi prison

    A WaPo journalist visits a Saudi jail for terrorists undergoing rehab:http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/...wpmk=MK0000203

    How effective is this?
    Gen. Mansour al-Turki, spokesman for the powerful Ministry of Interior, whose Mabahith secret police run the five high-security prisons....Turki said that about 20 percent of those who have gone through the rehabilitation program have returned to terrorism-related activities. Many rights activists think the failure rate is higher than Saudi officials admit.
    Note in 2013 (Post 28) this was the failure rate:
    The percentage of those who rejoin the deviant minority does not exceed 10%.
    So if we accept officialdom's statement the programme now has higher failure rate!
