Saudi- 6000 Twitter accounts 'are threatening security'
(MENAFN- Arab News) A number of accounts on social networking websites are spreading false information in an attempt to destabilize Saudi society.
Lt. Abdulaziz Alhowaireny director general of Investigation made these remarks at the opening speech of the two-day conference on 'Security and Media' organized by the Naif Academy for National Security.
The academy works to identify and address security risks facing citizens as well as bridging the gap between the media society and security institutions.
The security spokesman at the Interior Ministry Maj. Gen. Mansour Al-Turki urged media institutions to prioritize public interest over their own private interests and contribute to spreading awareness on these matters.
Al-Turki said media coverage should be accurate and clear to all noting that absolute media freedom does not exist in any country as every newspaper is influenced by political orientations.
Abdel Moneim Al-Mushawah head of Al-Sakina Campaign said some accounts have been trying to divide Saudi society for the past 10 years but have failed so far.
However over 6000 accounts on Twitter are trying to destabilize Saudi society while another 4000 accounts are re-tweeting their posts Hussein Al-Qahtani faculty member at Naif Academy said during the conference.
