Not to worry, though, he'll be beheaded first: Saudi Arabia bans crosses, but crucifixion is OK. In fact, there's one happening soon:

You can't display an image of the crucified Christ in Saudi Arabia, but if you are ghoulish enough to want to see a genuine crucifixion, then the Kingdom is planning to stage one soon.

Saudi's Court of Cassation has confirmed that it will crucify 22-year-old kidnapper and rapist Muhammad Basheer al-Ramaly, though it won't be following biblical precedent to the letter: he will be beheaded first, and his head will be stuck on a pole separately from his crucified torso...

It's not the death-penalty per se, it's the irony that counts.
