Religious Police Beaten Up in Yanbu
2003-08-28
Police in Yanbu have started investigating a case of 13 men who attacked members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice in front of their offices. The men were attempting to rescue a group of individuals the commission had arrested, Al Madinah reported.
Tried to bust their friends out of the slammer.
The commission had swooped on two men and two girls who were not related to one another on the beach there, the paper said.
Burka Beach Party Busted, film at 11.
On returning with their charges to their headquarters, they were attacked by the 13 and one of the girls escaped. Police later arrested four of the attackers and are still searching for the others. The commission released the two men and the girl still in their charge into the custody of their families.
Had enough of the holy police? Hope it turns into a trend.

#4  But if the men and girls had been related to one another, there would have been no swooping.

There's something wrong with this picture...
