300 Dinar Fine for Clothes Lines
The article primarily addresses violations related to hanging clothes and laundry lines on building facades and outside properties in Bahrain. The Northern Municipality warned that such actions are considered unauthorized occupation of public roads. Offenders are subject to a fine ranging from 50 to 300 Bahraini dinars, with the possibility of settling by paying one-third of the maximum fine. These violations are considered a breach of the Public Roads Occupation Law, which imposes fines of up to 500 dinars. The municipality emphasized that relevant authorities can require the removal of the causes of the violation, and if not done voluntarily, the municipality will execute the removal at the offender’s expense. The law covers anyone who extends laundry lines beyond their property boundaries and blocks part of the sidewalk or roadway, thereby obstructing the normal use of public facilities.
