Saudi Police arrested a local girl disguised in man’s clothes during a football match at a sport stadium in the conservative Gulf kingdom, a newspaper said on Saturday.

Policemen rushed to the place after the girl was exposed by security cameras while seated among men at the stadium in the Western Red Sea port of Jeddah.

Women are banned from entering sport stadiums in Saudi Arabia but there have been reports about plans to allow them into separate places assigned only for females.
