Dubai: Some 139 government officials have been arrested in Saudi Arabia on charges of corruption, including bribery, abuse of power and money laundering.

The arrests, carried out by the Saudi Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority (Nazaha), followed a thorough inspection of several government offices, including 2,950 rounds of scrutiny throughout August.

The accused individuals were from various high-profile ministries such as the Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Municipality and Housing, and the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority.
