Those who misbehaved with women during the event will be taken into custody after checking the videos. Copying other people’s images with a mobile phone is punishable by up to a year in prison.
A record crowd arrived at the Riyadh Season Festival last day. Meanwhile, some people filmed the young women who came to the event. There were isolated incursions against them. In addition to this, the enjoyment of women by the program was spread through social media with misinterpretation. It has been uploaded by many, including video platforms Tick Tock. The Ministry is monitoring the posts and re-posts. They will be taken into custody.
During the opening of the Riyadh season, Brigadier General Sami Shuwairaq, a spokesman for Public Security, said that a number of violations of public etiquette had been caught. Violations of public decency will be prosecuted regardless of age or gender. A public safety spokesman has warned against using mobile phones, taking pictures of strangers and violating privacy.
In such cases, action will be taken under the Cyber Crime Prevention Act. The penalty is a fine or imprisonment for up to one year. The ministry warned that there would be no fallout if the law was violated.
