Saudi religious police have arrested several men dressed as women during the recent religious festival.
The Saudi religious police arrested several cross-dressers over this week's Islamic holiday Eid Al-Adha.
The Saudi commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, also known as Saudi Arabia's religious police, enhanced patrols of the market in A-Dammam, the capital of the eastern province of Saudi Arabia. The vice police claim to have spotted seven or eight cross dressers a day throughout the three-day festival, which ended on Monday.
The cross dressers were seen wearing women's clothing, such as skirts and heeled shoes, and had feminine hairdos and makeup, the London-based Al-Hayyat reported.
