The newspaper said that the move comes after Sheikh Radhi slammed the Saudi authorities.
The move also comes after some media reports said that Sheikh Radhi was summoned for questioning, according to Khabir.
Sheikh Radhi slammed the Saudi regime over the execution of Sheikh Nimr, the war on Yemen as well as the Takfiri ideology which he considers is widespread in the Saudi Kingdom.
Sheikh Nimr was a vocal supporter of the mass pro-democracy protests against Riyadh, which erupted in Eastern Province in 2011, where a Shia majority has long complained of marginalization.
