Victims to get 1m Riyals in compensation
Saudi King Salman has ordered one million Riyals (($267,000) compensation for those who were injured with permanent disability and half a million for other injured pilgrims. Families of the deceased are also going to receive one million Riyals, according to a Saudi Royal Court order.
The Saudi Royal Court has not found any criminal intent behind the crane collapse in Makkah that killed 107 people and injured 331. The court, however, found The Saudi Binladin Group, which was involved in the Grand Mosque expansion project, guilty of violating safety standards and banned it from undertaking any future projects.
