Immediate action was taken against a shop worker after a father reported that he had sold e-cigarettes to his child, leading to the suspect’s arrest and detention.

The complaint, referred by the Northern Governorate Police Directorate, led to an investigation by the Public Prosecution. Investigators brought in the Asian worker for questioning before ordering his remand in custody as the case is prepared for trial.

The Family and Child Chief Prosecutor stated that such offences would be dealt with seriously, warning that full compliance with the law is essential to protect young people.
