According to the Arabic Ebaa website, eyewitnesses said that Shia pilgrims, upon their arrival to Saudi airports, become subjects to intrusive inspections and fierce insults by Saudi security guards.
Besides verbally abusing and impolitely inspecting the luggage of Shia pilgrims, Saudi security agents and airport officials, unjustifiably, delay Shia pilgrims for hours at airports.
Sources in Saudi Kingdom told news Agencies that security forces, besides conducting cruel behavior toward Shia Hajj pilgrims, encourage Salafists and Wahabi extremist groups to insults Shias during the Hajj Rituals, contrary to what Saudi authorities had promised before this Year’s Hajj convergence.
