Legal view on student phone searches
There are no details in the text regarding the subject of inspecting students' phones within schools directly, nor about a specific law that precisely regulates such inspections. Lawyer Ali bin Mu'ayyid Al-Ghiyathin confirmed that teachers do not have the right to search a student's phone within the school premises, even if the student consents. Such matters should be referred to the relevant authorities or the Public Prosecution. He clarified that Law No. 14 of 2014 concerning the Fight Against Cyber Crimes grants the Public Prosecution the authority to conduct searches of electronic devices under its supervision and with specific conditions, and not teachers. Therefore, the law prohibits teachers from inspecting students' phones and emphasizes the need to escalate such issues to the appropriate authorities.
