C-Men Avoid Court

I’ve mentioned the shenanigans of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice (the Ministry of Lasciviousness and Licentiousness) here in Saudi Arabia before. I’ve mentioned the usual things, like beating suspects to death or scaring innocent men so much that they have heart attacks. However, one of their better efforts I mentioned before was in Riyadh when they abused a woman and her daughter, beating the family’s driver up and abusing the maid as well as kidnapping the women for a period of time, eventually wrecking the women’s car because, in the view of these evil men, the woman’s daughter’s eyes were not covered after coming out of an amusement arcade.

Use the search box here on Thomo’s Hole, searching “C-Men” for previous posts about these buffoons.

The woman, called Umm Faisal in the reports, has taken the Commission to court because their detention of her and her daughter for no reason has damaged her reputation.

A simple enough case you would think, except the Commission obviously sees itself above the law as they keep applying for one delay after another. They have so far delayed this case over four months. I guess they learned the last time when trying to bribe the family of the man beaten to death that many people have had enough of these foolish men. See the Arab News for the latest report.
