   ...
   Prime Minister Daoud seized power in a military coup while the king was out of the country.
   ...
   They demanded the release of Abu Daoud (Dawud), an Al Fatah PLO leader imprisoned in Jordan for attempting to assassinate King Hussein. After 28 hours of negotiation, in which a number of Muslim ambassadors participated as intermediaries, the terrorists dropped their demand and asked only for safe passage out of the country. They agreed to release all except four of the hostages who were Saudi Arabians, and were allowed to board a Syrian plane which flew them to Kuwait. On September 7th, the Islamic Jihadists and their hostages transferred to a Kuwaiti plane and flew over Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
   
   The commandos threatened to throw the Saudi hostages out of the plane unless the Saudi Arabian government helped them in obtaining the release of Abu Daoud (Dawud).
   ...
   And as for Abu Daoud, he was released by King Hussein on September 13 which suggests that someone wasn't telling the truth.
