    Sky News: Saudi Arabia’s Prince Alwaleed bin Talal has bought a 2.3% stake in Snap – the company behind Snapchat – for $250m (£193m). The billionaire, who was held for two months in a high-profile corruption crackdown, said he made the investment on 25 May. He paid about $11 (£8.51) a share. His investment comes about three years after he met Snap chief executive Evan Spiegel and chief strategy officer Imran Khan, when the two executives visited Saudi capital Riyadh.
