According to the report, raj al-Walid’s body movements were last recorded in 2019. When he tried to communicate through little gestures. At that time he raised his finger and shook his head slightly. However, doctors say it was not a sign that he would regain consciousness.
At that time, the family started expecting him to return from a coma again. The wait for him to regain consciousness is still going on. His father, Prince Khalid bin Talal Al Saud, disagreed and decided to fight for his beloved son’s life. “If God wanted him to die in an accident, he would have been in the grave now,” his father said. ’
