The General Prosecution issued a warning on Friday against people who post videos that are contrary to the traditional values and morals of the UAE on social media.
The warning was issued following video clips called “Musawa” that went viral on social media. According to a Khaleej Times’ report, the videos depict young school boys and girls dancing and performing acts that are against the society’s values.
In the report, Attorney General Dr Hamad Saif Al Shamsee said that parents should ensure that their children don’t produce or share such immoral videos as they harm the society and would get them into trouble for violating the law.
He added that schools and universities are also responsible for teaching good morals and discipline to children.
“Young people should adhere to the virtues and values of morality and should not practice such acts that affect the public morals so as to respect the national identity,” said Al Shamsi.
“They must also respect institutions and schools that train them to be good and responsible citizens.”
