Police raided a theatre performance in Saudi Arabia where schoolkids had dressed up as the Smurf's because the music was un-Islamic.
The raid happened in the city of Taif after complaints about the religious music that was being played to accompany the performance by the kids aged between five and nine.
The Saudi Arabian newspaper "El Sharq" said that the anti-Smurf action by the police took place in front of a performance in front of around 2000 primary school children.
It said that the police raid had not gone down well with the audience who had protested loudly.
Although not illegal to play music in public many Saudis regard it as unIslamic.
