OMR 100 fine imposed for littering in public places in Oman

Muscat: A fine of OMR 100 will be imposed on anyone who disposes of waste in public places.

"Littering is a behaviour which harms the public health, pollutes the environment, and deprives others from spending good times outdoors. Littering is forbidden by law, punishable by a fine of up to OMR 100," Muscat Municipality said in a statement.

The municipality added that the cleanliness of Muscat and the preservation of tourist facilities and sites are the responsibility of everyone. Let us ensure that they are complied with in order to avoid legal accountability.

The municipality shared pictures of negative practices against the environment from the top of Amerat mountain.
