I want to know what you can do me the government has banned your patrol and your role is only to advise people , "the woman yells at the patrol leader. You are not responsible for me and that I put nail polish does not concern you , "she shouts in the video of three and a half minutes then usually, people do not discuss with members of the police is feared by the population. Nearly 1, 150 million people have watched the video a few days, and it has aroused intense controversy.The video has provoked negative comments about 7000 people judging the attitude of women "shameful ", while about 1,500 have sustained. Identifiable by their beards and their robes stopping above the ankle, the members of the religious police are responsible for ensuring compliance with Islamic morality. They often patrol the malls and other public places in search of women who are not properly veiled, unmarried couples or stores that do not close at the hour of prayer. But they have adopted a low profile since his appointment in January of a moderate, Sheikh Abdul Latif bin Abdul Aziz Al Sheikh, the head of this powerful body.
