Saudi princes and billionaire businessmen arrested in a power grab earlier this month are being strung up by their feet and beaten by American private security contractors, a source in the country tells DailyMail.com.
The group of the country's most powerful figures were arrested in a crackdown ordered by Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman three weeks ago as he ordered the detention of at least 11 fellow princes and hundreds of businessmen and government officials over claims of corruption.
DailyMail.com can disclose that the arrests have been followed by 'interrogations' which a source said were being carried out by 'American mercenaries' brought in to work for the 32-year-old crown prince, who is now the kingdom's most powerful figure.
'They are beating them, torturing them, slapping them, insulting them. They want to break them down,' the source told DailyMail.com.
'Blackwater' has been named by DailyMail.com's source as the firm involved, and the claim of its presence in Saudi Arabia has also been made on Arabic social media, and by Lebanon's president.
The firm's successor, Academi, strongly denies even being in Saudi Arabia and says it does not engage in torture, which it is illegal for any U.S. citizen to commit anywhere in the world.
The Saudi crown prince, according to the source, has also confiscated more than $194 billion from the bank accounts and seized assets of those arrested.

Who’s holding mid-tier of the man pyramid?
And I think I know WHO leveled the charge.
See below:
I don’t place a lot of credence in the story either.
I was just playing with the potential irony in the event it was true.
Fake news
Juan swings both ways?
Off-books payback for Mandelay.
They'll be forced listen to Hillary's excuses of why she
lost the election. Those poor prisoners will screaming to
be released from the mind numbing boredom of it all.
“IIRC, Blackwater changed its name to Xe, and is now know as Academi.”
Perhaps Erik Prince has just moved into a new line of the Service Industry, leveraging his Sister’s background to provide innovative education, tutoring and coaching services to select Saudis, at the behest of the paying customer.
Or maybe we could call it corrections counseling services, or financial assets recovery investigations, or something...
It looks that way because we were standing on the other side.
Let’s look in the mirror. This looks right, right?
Right? Wrong? Right. Right. Wrong. /George Costanza
Whaddya got there, the 4-volt? I did ya a favor.
Ah that John McCain......
“why would they need American mercenaries to do that kind of work?”
Maybe a lot of locals are afraid to make an enemy of these guys. Princes and billionaires can very credibly threaten to get even with them later, in a way that would make Cersei Lannister blush.
Sounds like a bad movie script. If it were true a good twist to the plot would be that one of these billionaires gives up who was behind 9/11, who knew what and when. Soon John Mc Cain,Bill Clinton, Al Gore and General Wesley Clark are nowhere to be found.
This is exactly the kind of job Prince MBS would want to contract out to people he can trust. Blackwater was/is only one of many U.S. contracting outfits in the Middle East whose loyalty can be bought and trusted to do things to Saudis that other Saudis couldn't be trusted to do.
Bastinado is also referred to as foot (bottom) caning or sole caning, depending on the instrument in use. The particular Middle East method is called falaka or falanga.
Will these Americans be prosecuted if they decided to come home?
Blackwater has not existed for years.
Another unnamed source rumor to go on the pile out back.
SHRILLARY has a boot too.
Ankle bracelet.
What goes around comes around.
