Saudi Arabia has been abuzz in the past couple of days with the hashtag #??????_????_???_?????, which translates as "a Good Samaritan pulls off the wire of a speaker".
A Saudi woman has been hailed a 'Good Samaritan' for 'crashing a party' in Saudi Arabia.
Local twitterati in the Kingdom was abuzz with reports of a burqa-clad woman, literally, pulling the plug on the music at a public gathering recently.
The Arabic hashtag ??????_????_???_????? had been trending since August 5, which translates to "a Good Samaritan pulls off the wire of a speaker".
According to a video circulating on social media, seeing women swaying to a traditional song was playing on the speakers, at what seems to be a park, the fully veiled women approached the speaker and angrily tugged on its wire until she pulled it off completely.
The video then shows the woman walking away, leaving everybody in the park shocked.
The incident has received mixed reaction on Twitter, with some approving the action while many disapproving, with some even awarding her a cash reward for the 'deed'.
