In an interview with Al Jazeera, Khaled al-Maeena, editor-at-large of the Saudi Gazette publication, said that Khoja was not dismissed, but left for health reasons and advancing age.
Maeena, however, said that it was time for the government to crack down on those, who are trying to incite sectarian animosity.
"The question of sectarian killings, this is the first time this has happened on that scale, and it has cause a lot of people concern," he said.
He also called for "more dialogue" among Saudi's diverse communities, and for the government to step up reforms to prevent sectarian tension.
