RIYADH, Dec 19: Saudi police dressed as pilgrims seized around 100 pickpockets similarly disguised who were mingling with the two million Muslims performing the hajj, Saudi media said on Wednesday.
“Around 100 pickpockets wearing ihram clothing (two pieces of white fabric traditionally to be used later as a shroud) were arrested by security services around Jebel ar-Rahma,” (Mount Arafat) reported the Okaz daily.—AFP
