Saudi newspaper “Riyadh” removed this image

Under the title “Princess Al Anood Orga­ni­za­tion pro­vides finan­cial assis­tance for the dis­placed in Jizan Province”, Saudi news­pa­per Riyadh showed this image which shows an elderly poor man dis­placed by Saudi-Yemen bor­der war kiss­ing the “money” enve­lope and the orga­ni­za­tion activist looks very proud to the cam­era, (more images from the newspaper’s report).

After a wave of wide con­dem­na­tion com­ments from angry read­ers (reac­tions con­tinue ’till this moment) ask­ing why dis­play­ing an old man kiss­ing money if it is a char­ity action, the news­pa­per removed the image from the archive.

The Orga­ni­za­tion named after Princesses Al-Anood Abdul Aziz Bin Musa’ad Al-Saoud (dead) wife of the for­mer Saudi King Fahad.
