RIYADH — The Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority (Nazaha) conducted 1,585 oversight inspections and investigated 385 suspects during June 2026 as part of its ongoing efforts to combat corruption and protect public funds.
Nazaha said 130 Saudi citizens and residents were arrested under the Code of Criminal Procedure, including individuals employed by the ministries of Interior, Defense, Health, Municipalities and Housing, and Islamic Affairs, Dawah and Guidance.
Some of those arrested have since been released on bail while legal proceedings continue.
The suspects are accused of offenses including bribery and abuse of public office, the authority said, adding that legal procedures are being completed ahead of referring the cases to the competent courts.
Nazaha reiterated its call for the public to report suspected financial and administrative corruption through its designated reporting channels, stressing that public cooperation plays a key role in protecting public funds and promoting integrity.
