I crossed the white line at the traffic lights while the it was red. The Radar flashed on me twice but I stopped and didn't move further. Can someone please tell me, if I will still get fine of beating the red light or there is some other rule for crossing the white line. Your experience is appreciated please.

There was an article in the newspaper about this a while ago. If you stopped after the line and the camera flashed, you will be fined with 500 riyals only. If you get fined 6000 riyals, go to the traffic police; they'll review the footage and reduce the fine to 500.
