SAUDI EXPATRIATES

A Saudi woman and an expat (Arab national) were among those involved, and they advertised it on several social media platforms. The responsibility of prosecuting legal action against the accused has been handed to the Public Prosecution.

The woman's social media posts falsely claimed to be treating infertility, glands, and clots, as well as using traditional medicines and mixes, according to the ministry. 

She had not obtained the necessary licenses to practice these fields. According to the ministry, the Arab national falsely advertised himself on social media as a specialist in the treatment of speech and learning disorders, despite not possessing the necessary license to do so.
