A Saudi prince has been sentenced to life in jail for murdering one of his servants at a hotel in central London, local press reported on Wednesday, Xinhua reported.
  
Prince Saud Abdulaziz bin Nasser al Saud, 34, was sentenced to life in prison with minimum of 20 years by a judge at the Central Criminal Court in London. He has admitted committing manslaughter but denied murder.

The court ruled that the prince beat and strangled his servant Bandera Abdulaziz to death during the attack on Feb. 15.

He said the servant was injured when being attacked and robbed in Edgware Road, central London, a few weeks before the death. But when police reviewed CCTV at the hotel, they found footage of Al Saud attacking the servant.
