"First and foremost, I'd like to address the embarrassing invasion of this year's Hajj by illegal pilgrims." "I'm not sure what percentage, but we saw people who had no business in Mina and a few days later they turned Mina into a tourist trap." “However, we were not in a position to checkmate them. We do not have the security control because there was no way we can handle the issue, an embarrassment to us. “There was no way we can check them. Only the appropriate authorities can do that.”
