Vegetable peddlers caught selling narcotics, pimping

A vendors peddles fruits along a street in Jeddah.

                                                                                               

     

MAKKAH: Municipality inspectors have caught a number of illegal foreign peddlers selling various kinds of drugs in Makkah.

Some were even caught acting as pimps. Their so-called trade of selling fruit and vegetables was exposed as a front for their illegal activities.

A committee from the municipality’s department of environmental health recently caught an overstaying Yemeni selling drugs, including amphetamines, hashish and qat. He communicated to his customers using text messages.

The unidentified Yemeni was pushing his vegetable cart along the streets of Jarwal district when officials caught him.

Upon examining his BlackBerry phone, they discovered messages that revealed he was selling drugs.

The messages showed that the suspect was selling four pills of Captagon for SR50, a block of hashish for SR500 and a bundle of qat for SR150.

Another foreign peddler who ran a prostitution ring would lure women by selling mobile SIM cards to them. He would sell the cards to them at low prices and then call them later to pimp them out to customers.

After they reached an agreement, he would send them to houses of single men and then take a commission from them. The inspectors caught the man in Al-Mansour district.

The committee did not identify the pimp but said he was a Yemeni national who was caught after being tipped off by one of his customers. Officials added that a number of SIM cards were found with him and he admitted his crime.

The committee also arrested a Nigerian who was also pimping out women from his country, using his watermelon business as a front.

According to the committee, the illegal resident was caught after a Saudi citizen tipped off police about his activities. Officials said the informant befriended him until he gained the Nigerian’s trust.

When the Nigerian was convinced the Saudi was trustworthy, he offered to bring him girls.

Meanwhile, the committee also caught a number of Bangladeshi peddlers selling fruit and vegetables irrigated with sewage water.

Duo arrested for abducting, assaulting Madinah woman

By ARAB NEWS

Published: Jun 17, 2011 00:19 Updated: Jun 17, 2011 00:19

MADINAH: A man in his 30s was arrested in Madinah on Wednesday in connection with the kidnap and rape of a woman during the holy month of Ramadan last year, local Arabic daily Al-Watan reported Thursday.

Madinah police said the man, who has a criminal record, abducted the woman in front of her house in Madinah and took her to a rest house where he and a friend raped her.

The woman, who was in her 30s, was on her way home in the Al-Awali district from a relative’s house in the Al-Anbariyah district when a pickup truck stopped by her and offered her transport.

Police said the driver took a different route and told the woman that he was evading traffic congestion until he stopped at a rest house owned by one of his friends and forced her to enter. Police added the driver and his friend both raped the woman then dropped her off at a remote road.

Police said a thorough search led to the arrest of the friend, who also had a criminal record. The general court sentenced him to three years imprisonment and 1,500 lashes.

They said it took them time to arrest the prime suspect, who has a long history of criminal activity. Officers said the suspect confessed to his crime and he would stand trial.

According to the report, the victim’s family slammed the sentence handed out to the friend, considering it very light and not commensurate with the crime. They had asked for the death sentence for both of them.

Pakistan - History through the Centuries.Page By Page

By Dr. Ahmad Hasan Dani

Pakistan, the Indus land, is the child of the Indus in the same way as Egypt is the gift of Nile. The Indus has provided unity, fertility, communication, direction and the entire landscape to the country. Its location marks it as a great divide as well as a link between central Asia and south Asia. But the historical movements of the people from Central Asia and South Asia have given to it a character of its own and have established closer relation between the people of Pakistan and those of Central Asia in the field of culture, language, literature, food, dress, furniture and folklore. However, it is the Arabian Sea that has opened the doors for journey beyond to the Arabian world through the Gulf and Red Sea right into the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia and Egypt. It is this Sea voyage that gave to the Indus Land its earliest name of Meluhha because the Indus people were characterized as Malahha (Sailor) in the Babylonian records. It is for this reason that the oldest civilization of this land, called Indus Civilization, had unbreakable bonds of culture and trade link with the Gulf States of Dubai, Abu Dabi, Sharja, Qatter, Bahrain and right from Oman to Kuwait. While a Meluhhan village sprang up in ancient Mesopotamia (Modern Iraq), the Indus seals, painted pottery, lapis lazuli and many other items were exchanged for copper, tin and several other objects from Oman and Gulf States. It is to facilitate this trade that the Indus writing was evolved in the same proto-symbolic style as the contemporary cuneiform writing of Mesopotamia. Much later in history it is the pursuit of this seaward trade that introduced Islam from Arabia in to Pakistan. The twin foundations of cultural link have helped build the stable edifice of Islamic civilization in this country. All these cultural developments are writ-large in the personality of the people of Pakistan.

As in many other countries of the world, man in Pakistan began with the technology of working on old stone by using quartzite and flint found in Rohri hills and stone pebbles found in the Soan Valley. The oldest stone tool in the world, going back to 2.2 million years old, has been found at Rabat, about fifteen miles away from Rawalpindi, thus breaking the African record. The largest hand Axe has also been found in the Soan Valley. Although man is still hiding in some corner, the Soan pebble stone age culture show a link with the Hissar Culture in Central Asia. Later about fifty thousand B.C. at Sangho Cave in Mardan District man improved his technology for working on Quartz in order to chase the animal in closed valleys. Still later he worked on micro quartz and chert or flint and produced arrows, knives, scrapers and blades and hunted the feeling deer and ibexes with bow and arrow. Such an hunting scene is well illustrated on several rock carvings, particularly near Chilas in the Northern Areas of Pakistan along the Karakorum Highway - a style of rock art so well known in the trans- Pamir region of Tajikistan and Kirghizstan. However, the first settled life began in the eight millennium B.C. when the first village was found at Mehergarh in the Sibi districts of Balochistan comparable with the earliest villages of Jericho in Palestine and Jarmo in Iraq. Here their mud houses have been excavated and agricultural land known for the cultivation of maize and wheat. Man began to live together in settled social life and used polished stone tools, made pots and pans, beads and other ornaments. His taste for decoration developed and he began to paint his vessels, jars, bowls, drinking glasses, dishes and plates. It was now that he discovered the advantage of using metals for his tools and other objects of daily use. For the first time in seventh millennium B.C. he learnt to use bronze. From the first revolution in his social, cultural and economic life. He established trade relation with the people of Turkamenistan, Uzbekistan, Iran and other Arab world.
