The Oversight and Anti-Corruption Authority revealedintegrityThe authority reported on the results of its oversight campaigns in October 2025, noting that 4895 inspection visits were conducted across various government sectors. These visits are part of the authority's ongoing efforts to enhance transparency and combat corruption in the Kingdom.
The authority stated in its monthly report that it conducted investigations into 478 defendants in various administrative and criminal cases. Additionally, 100 citizens and residents were detained, including employees of several sensitive ministries, most notably the Ministries of Interior, Municipalities and Housing, Education, Health, and Human Resources and Social Development.
The authority stated that the investigations included a number of cases related to abuse of power, manipulation of public funds, and illicit privileges, stressing that it continues to work on uncovering and addressing any suspicions of corruption in the public and private sectors.
In a related context, the authority called on citizens and residents to report any cases of corruption or suspicions of corruption that they may notice, explaining that reporting these cases is one of the roles of society in promoting integrity and contributing to improving government performance.
Emphasis on transparency and accountability
The authority affirmed that “Nazaha” will continue to enhance transparency in government transactions through the use of the latest monitoring methods and modern technologies, and will continue to hold accountable all those involved in corruption cases, regardless of their positions or the entities they work for.
The authority explained that it is striving to enhance its role in developing anti-corruption policies in the Kingdom in line with Saudi Vision 2030, which focuses on strengthening governance and achieving social justice through transparent and strong institutions.
An important step in the fight against corruption
These oversight campaigns are a crucial step in combating corruption and achieving justice within government institutions. While the National Anti-Corruption Commission (Nazaha) has made significant progress in fighting corruption, there remains a continuous need to strengthen public oversight and community partnerships in uncovering corruption.
These initiatives demonstrate the Kingdom’s commitment to providing a corruption-free work and social environment, which enhances public confidence in state institutions and supports the stability of the national economy.
