Al-Waha official jailed over $140M corruption
The Public Prosecution has ordered the detention of the Director of Engineering Department at Al-Waha Oil Company and the Deputy Project Manager of the Hadra Oil Field Rehabilitation Project, on a provisional basis, on charges of abuse of power and damaging the company's and public funds' interests. Investigations revealed that the contractor responsible for the field's projects, established in 2022, received $140 million during 2023 and 2024, despite the work not being completed according to the contract terms. Additionally, the responsible individual approved the pricing without reviewing the completed work. These measures are part of ongoing efforts to investigate officials accused of corruption related to the management of company funds, following previous charges against a former chairman of the board of Al-Waha Oil Company.
