Saudi Arabia Deports 3 Men for Being ‘too handsome’
The men, delegates from the United Arab Emirates, were attending the annual Jenadrivah Heritage and Culture Festival in the capital Riyadh – Saudi Arabia, when they were thrown out by religious police, the Arabic Elaph newspaper reported.
It was feared they were too irresistible to the local women, who are banned from interacting from men they’re not related to.
A festival official said the three Emiratis were taken out on the grounds they are too handsome and that the Commission members feared female visitors could fall for them,
the newspaper said.
The UAE has released an official statement indicating the religious police were anxious over the unexpected presence of a female artist at the festival.
“Her visit to the UAE stand was a coincidence as it was not included in the program which we had already provided to the festival’s management,” Saeed Al Kaabi, head of the UAE delegation to the festival, said.
The men were returned to the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi.
