Saudi couple caught in 'obscene' act

Saudi Arabia’s religious police arrested a local man and a woman after catching them in an obscene act in his car, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Members of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice were on a routine night patrol near a shopping mall in the Southern town of Khamis Mushait when they saw the two inside the parked car.

‘Ajel’ daily said police identified the Saudi as a salesman at a shop in the mall while the Saudi woman also works at a clothes shop.

“They two were arrested and taken to the station after they were caught in an obscene act inside the car,” the paper said.
