The Public Prosecution ordered the pretrial detention of a former financial official in the General Company for Cleaning Services of Murqub, pending investigation, on charges of disbursing an amount of 13 million and 550 thousand dinars based on forged documents.
The Attorney General’s Office explained that the Public Prosecution Office of the Anti-Corruption Prosecution in the Court of Appeal of Al-Khums considered the outcome of the Audit Bureau’s report regarding the contracts concluded by the company during the period from 2016 to 2020. The investigation revealed the fact that the official responsible for the rules and procedures regulating financial work and its procedures had left to contribute, with others, to the implementation of the scheme to obtain illegal material benefits.
He added that the former financial official of the company deliberately falsified the truth in the documents entrusted with the duty to edit them by showing the execution tools contracted with it that it had carried out the works subject to its commitment under the contracts. An amount of 13 million and 550 thousand dinars was disbursed to her based on those documents, which resulted in damage to the funds entrusted to him to manage, and thus the investigator ordered the pretrial detention of the accused pending investigation and the prosecution of the rest of the accused.
