The Ministry of Interior emphasized that facilitating the entry or assisting violators exposes the individual involved to penalties of up to 15 years in prison and a fine of up to one million riyals, along with seizure of transportation and housing. It also warned against complacency in dealing with these crimes, which are considered major offenses warranting detention.
