 The Lower House of Parliament on Wednesday voted to dismiss MP Muhammad Al-Fayez for violating parliamentary and diplomatic norms and offending the Kingdom and its reputation by publishing and sending a letter to an Arab country.

On the recommendation of the House’s Legal Committee, which looked into several violations leveled against the MP, 92 of the 110 deputies present at the session voted to dismiss Al-Fayez.

The committee said that in addition to breaking the parliamentary code of conduct, Al-Fayez broke the bylaw of the legislature by failing to attend House meetings, violating the legal oath, and unlawfully collecting House-provided allocations while absent.
