The King Of Saudi Arabia Has Called For The Arrest Of A Saudi Prince After A Vulgar Video Went Viral
King Salman of Saudi Arabia has ordered the arrest of a Saudi prince after a video of the prince went viral.
One video shows the prince criticising a man for parking near his house, the prince goes on to assault the man demanding he move his car immediately. The man is later seen with blood on his shirt.
In another video the Prince is seen cursing and wielding a gun in the presence of large amounts of alcohol (which is completely forbidden in Saudi Arabia).
Due to the vulgar content and abusive language, the video is unsharable here.
The King ordered a full investigation into the incident and the prince has been arrested.
The King publicly acknowledged the incident
He stated that no matter who commits the crime (whether a prince or civilian), if there is proof, justice will be served.
