What thought to be an innocuous act of uploading a photograph by holding a gun put a Pakistani national in soup. The Pakistani labourer was jailed after uploading a picture of him holding a fake Kalashnikov in A'ali.

In an apparent show off, the man uploaded the picture on social media network without thinking about the consequences of his act. But his move evoked security concerns, making police to move quickly to capture him.

Although authorities ascertained that the arm was imitation, the man was kept in custody. It's reported that the man was working a pottery factory in A'ali and the picture was taken near his workplace.
