The royal he killed was his older wheelchair bound nephew who was also a prince(a more important prince: eldest son of Shaikh Salem Sabah Al Salem Al Sabah and Shaikha Badriya Abdullah Al Jaber Al Sabah).

Seven people from Phillipines, Ethiopia, Bangladesh and Egypt.

Found an article on the filipino woman.
Filipino woman executed
The filipino was a worker who was charged with murdering her employer's 22 year old daughter. She was found guilty despite having no motive to kill, and dna evidence not matching.

I would put money on the father/uncle/brother raping then honor killing her and once the police investigated, they just blamed slave-nanny. Of course a woman's testimony, especially an infidel and a non-arab is worth nothing in their courts.

They kill indiscriminately so why does it matter who they kill?
