Foreigners living in Saudi Arabia caught eating or drinking in public during Ramadan will be fired from their jobs and expelled from the country, the foreign ministry said Tuesday, one day before the Muslim holy month of fasting began.
“Non-Muslim residents in the kingdom must not eat or drink in public during Ramadan, in respect to the holiness of Ramadan and the feelings of Muslims,” said a statement by the interior ministry published by the state-run SPA news agency.
The statement said those who chose to disregard the law “will be subject to deterrent measures that include terminating their employment contracts and expelling them from the kingdom.”
