Riyadh In his capacity as the Honorary Chairman of The Council of Arab Interior Ministers, he answered a question about Syria's announcement of "Al-Sham' terrorist cell and that if there are any news about the involvement of terrorists in Al-Hariri's assassination, by saying that "we did not receive anything so far." With regard to the existence of any Kuwaiti mediation between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, Prince Naif said, "I think that there was an earlier decision which called on Kuwait to settle disputes between the GCC countries if they are found. Moreover, Kuwait is now accomplishing it (this mission) as a routine task but there is no mediation, in reality, in this context." He affirmed that the issue of "Al Murrah" is an internal affair of Qatar. Asked to comment whether the Kingdom would demand that Bin Laden and Al-Faqeeh would be handed over to it, Prince Naif said such a demand will depend only after their arrests. On the other hand, asked to say about King Fahd's health status, Prince Naif said "it is improving and we hope that he will not stay for a long time in the hospital." Commenting on a report by an Iranian newspaper about the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Prince Naif reaffirmed that this is very silly and baseless and that the Foreign Minister and his assistant have already spoken about this. "In addition, a statement was also issued by the Foreign Ministry in this context." --SPA 1340 Local Time 1040 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/269541
