SAUDI ARABIA – One man isn't finding the line "Is that a bottle of alcohol in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me" very funny these days.
The Express Tribune, a Pakistani newspaper, is reporting that a Saudi man was arrested by authorities after he was found attempting to smuggle liquor bottles in his underwear into the country where alcohol is prohibited.
