A young Saudi woman has scared off officers from the feared religious police by bravely defending her right to wear makeup and nail polish.
The lady caught the attention of the local vice squad at a big shopping mall in Riyadh. Contrary to the regions religious rules, she was wearing lipstick, nail polish, and a few strands of hair were visible under her veil.
The squad stopped the woman and, after a strict telling-off, ordered her to leave. To their utter surprise, the lady wasnt ready to give up without a fight.
Its none of your business if I wear nail polish! the woman shouted out loud, as seen in the video. You are not in charge of me! The government has banned you from coming after us! You are only supposed to provide advice and nothing more!
