Borkan Al Gala was reportedly among three men from the United Arab Emirates who were kicked out from a festival in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh because they apparently were labeled 'too handsome.'
Authorities are reported to have said they feared women could become attracted to them, and fall into sexually immoral thoughts, according to Arabic newspaper Elaph.
The men were arrested by police officers from the country's religious police force, the Mutaween, according to UK's The Sun.

Saudi Arabia is an ultra conservative Islamic nation that imposes numerous rules on women such as that they must stay covered up at all times and are not allowed to speak or interact with men who are not their relatives.
Borkan Al Gala addressed the report in his Facebook page. On April 21 he posted: 'This is what written in newspapers in over the world :) UAE men ordered to leave Saudi Arabia for being 'too handsome',' and added a link to the Streamlux site.
