RIYADH, 16 October — Saudi lawyers Dr. Ahmed Al-Tuwaijeri and Salah Al-Hujeilan, who are defending six Westerners arrested in connection with bomb blasts in Riyadh, have denied press reports that there was a conflict between them. They described the reports as fabrication. In a statement yesterday, Tuwaijeri also disclosed that Hujeilan had denied foreign press reports in which he allegedly blamed Al-Qaeda network for the bomb attacks in Riyadh. "There is no conflict between us and we pursue a united legal stand on the case," Tuwaijeri said and reiterated his admiration and respect for Hujeilan.
