Sheep auction

Responding to reports that circulated on social media about a sheep auction held at the Shamiya police station, the Interior Ministry's Department of Relations and Security Information said that the reports were highly exaggerated. It explained that a citizen living in Shamiya came to the police station with a lost sheep. He said he found it and did not know who its owner was, so the sheep was kept at the police station and the Public Authority for Agricultural Affairs and Fish Resources was contacted. An officer printed a notice about a sheep auction and pasted it in his office as a joke. Disciplinary action was taken against the officer who printed the notice and the one who took the photo.
