not quite sure if this is correct, but on Twitter this photo circulates as one of the ‘deportees’ Omar-Borkan-Al-Gala-Dubai
The men were visiting Saudi Arabia from the United Arab Emirates to attend the annual Jenadrivah Heritage & Cultural Festival in Riyadh. They were apparently minding their own business when members of Saudi Arabia’s religion police entered the pavilion and forcibly removed them from the festival. Their offense? They were considered “too handsome” to stay for fear that women would find them irresistible, according to the Arabic-language newspaper Elaph.

Oh man, now that’s another reason why I’ll not be allowed in Saudi 🙂
I am sure a lot of people would like to see their pictures, to decide what “handsome” looks like!!
Shahid do not worry. You will not be deported. I saw you and know the mind set of Saudies also. Go ahead.
Now, that’s not a very nice comment, not even funny.
I strongly believe those HANDSOME must have committed something which convinced police to take such extreme actions. Anyhow a good prior information for me, I shall avoid going to such places to escape getting into unnecessary problems…..when I shall make my first ever visit to the most holy land.
Yes…pictures would have been nice.
picture now added, not sure if it is genuine (the actual deportee), but it circulates on twitter.
