Riyadh, March 27 (IANS) A senior Al Qaeda leader has voluntarily returned home in Saudi Arabia and surrendered himself to the authorities, a media report said.
Fahad al-Ruwaily was on the list of Saudi Arabia's 85 most wanted militants living abroad, Geo TV reported quoting the interior ministry as saying.
Fahad returned to Saudi Arabia Wednesday, Interior Ministry spokesman Mansour al-Turki said without giving further details.
