The Minister of Interior, Mazen Al-Faraya, instructed the administrative governors to release 503 administrative detainees, on the occasion of the approaching Eid Al-Adha.

The ministry said in a statement, on Sunday, that the decision came after their files were duly studied and made sure that their release did not pose a threat to security and public order.

The Ministry affirmed that this was done with the aim of giving them the opportunity to integrate into society and enabling them to lead a normal life among their families.
