Saudi Interior Ministry spokesman Gen. Mansour al-Turki said 701 were initially arrested, and 520 are still in custody. The remaining 181 were released for lack of evidence.

Some of the suspects are believed to have recruited and trained militants from Asia in order to bring them to Saudi Arabia to carry out terror attacks, al-Turki said.

The targets include oil installations, facilities and security headquarters inside the kingdom, al-Turki said.
