Saudi Arabia stops 43 Hajj regulation violators
The Haj security forces in Saudi Arabia successfully arrested an Egyptian resident and a Saudi citizen who were transporting 43 individuals in violation of the regulations and instructions of the Haj season. They were inside a truck equipped with a hidden compartment used to smuggle them into Mecca without proper permits. If proven to be involved, violators could face fines of up to 50,000 riyals (approximately $13,300), imprisonment for up to 6 months, confiscation of the vehicle, and deportation after serving their sentence. Additionally, they would be barred from entering the Kingdom for the legally designated periods. The ministry emphasized the importance of adhering to Haj season regulations and obtaining official permits to ensure the safety of all pilgrims.
