London, Nov. 4 British soccer fans have warned that they could end up in court if they drink or go bare-chested when England play in Qatar next week.

The Islamic state bans drinking or being drunk in public. And wearing shorts or stripping off a shirt in the 860F (300C) sunshine could offend the locals, The Sun quoted officials, as warning.

Rude gestures and kissing a girlfriend in public could also lead to court in the Gulf state.

The Footballer Supporters' Federation said: "The consequences of falling foul of the authorities in Qatar can be pretty drastic." (ANI)
