Isn't this the country that recently arrested and convicted a man for having marijuana on the sole of his shoe that was barely visible to the naked eye?
It is my experience that the fear of allowing others exposure to things is typically based in insecurity. I said the same thing around three years ago when Moroccan police arrested a metal band for something like "attempting to convert Muslims." You may not have religious police (at least not publicly,) but I'm quite certain that religious convictions and insecurity about others going against those convictions were the basis of this action.
