79-year-old Crown Prince Nayef bin Abdul Aziz, who was recently receiving medical treatment, has died outside the kingdom.
Nayef was announced the new heir to the Saudi throne after the death of his full brother, former Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdul Aziz, at a New York hospital on October 22, 2011.
The 79-year-old Nayef, who was also the long-serving interior minister of Saudi Arabia, recently left the kingdom for medical treatment and was seen in Switzerland a few days ago.
The Saudi people in the Eastern parts of the Arab state took to the streets to share their happiness over the death of Nayef bin Abdul Aziz as he was the main authority in charge of the suppression of Shiites in the country.
