Saudi authorities have ordered an investigation into a short film showing a pupil at his school with a machine gun.
The film showed the school boy carrying the gun and climbing the stair to his classroom in the school in the central Al Aflaj province.
The head of the province’s education department “has ordered the formation of a committee to probe the incident,” Ajel newspaper said.
It said viewers called for punishing the student in line with Saudi laws, which included 18 months in prison and a large fine.
