Two Apartments In Mirqab Packed With 95 Asians

95 expats were forced to live in two apartments in a building in the Al-Mirqab area which evoked condemnation from the governor of the capital, Sheikh Talal Al -Khaled.

Most of the expatriates are Asians being cramped in a limited space, which allows for easy transmission of the coronavirus. Al-Khaled stated that the concerned authorities in the Ministry of Interior will support these expats and put them under quarantine, and stressed that harsh legal measures will be enforced against all sponsors and landlords who allow such things to happen.

He pointed out that negligence in providing proper housing negatively affects the health, living and humanitarian aspects, whether for expats or the surrounding environment, and is considered uncivilized and inappropriate for the people involved. Al-Khaled stressed that such miserable living conditions for housing the expatriate labor needs to be made known as these conditions contradict the decisions of the Cabinet recently issued to confront the Coronavirus by preventing gatherings and close contact between people.
