RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 9 (UPI) -- Saudi Arabia released a list Sunday of 47 fugitive extremists it says are plotting to attack the kingdom.
The Interior Ministry said the list has been turned over to Interpol with a reward posted for information leading to their capture, the state-run SPA news agency said.

A ministry spokesman said five wanted Saudis already have surrendered to Saudi embassies abroad.
Saudi security forces have intensified their campaign against al-Qaida, and in November said they had captured 149 people who were trying to raise money and recruit members to carry out attacks.
