Police in the Eastern province have arrested 3,796 labor law violators during the inspection campaign, said Lt. Col. Zayad Al-Ruqaiti, spokesman for the Eastern Province Police.

“Violators were sent to the province’s detention center, and we will continue the crackdown all over the province’s cities to make sure that all expats’ employment and work situations are legal to eradicate this phenomenon,” he said.

“Authorities are investigating sites where violators hide according to information we receive on a regular basis.”
