An Indian worker has been beheaded by a sword in Riyadh after being convicted of murdering a Saudi, the interior ministry said.

Mohammed Latif was found guilty of beating his sponsor, Dhafer bin Mohammed al-Dussari, to death and then dumping his body in a well, News24 reports.

A system called "kafala" in Arabic gives local sponsors control over foreign workers in the oil-rich Gulf, the report added.
