A wanted Saudi man attacked a religious policeman with a cleaver, causing medium injuries to the cop who was taken to hospital.

The member of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice was questioning the man near his house in the northwestern town of Skaka over accusations filed by a local woman that he had molested her.

“That man attacked the Commission member with a cleaver, causing medium injuries to his head and body. Police arrested the man and charged him with assault on a police man while on duty,” the Arabic language daily 'Ajel' said.
