Saudi TV presenter found to be paedophile

Saudi Arabia’s feared religious police arrested a children programme presenter at a famous TV channel accused of raping many little boys in the Gulf Kingdom.

Sabq Arabic language newspaper said the presenter works for a “famous” TV station but did not identify both of them. It said the presenter was caught by members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice and security men at a shopping mall in Riyadh while taking a nine-year-old boy with him.

Commission members had rushed to the mall after receiving calls from the security men and a woman, who said the presenter was involved in an “obscene” phone call with her little son. Security men detained the presenter after that woman saw him taking a boy.

“The presenter confessed during interrogation that he had raped and molested many boys because he had psychological problems,” the paper said.

“It emerged later that he had used his children programme for his evil acts and had targetted only handsome children…police found many pictures in his mobile phone showing him in absence acts with kids.”
