RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, July 19 (UPI) -- Saudi coastal guards arrested seven Iranians who were allegedly trying to smuggle banned alcoholic beverages into Saudi Arabia, reports said Tuesday.
Normally you only see this kind of un-islamic behavior among european ex-pats in Saudi
The Saudi daily Okaz said the smugglers were intercepted in a small boat off the province of Jubeil in eastern Saudi Arabia. Police seized 600 boxes of beverages, including whiskey and vodka. The suspects were taken into custody for interrogation before being referred for trial.
Alcoholic beverages are strictly forbidden in Saudi Arabia, which is ruled according to Islamic law.
