Saudi Arabia fires commander and son for alleged corruption

The supervisory body said the arrests were taken after criminally investigating 674 state employees, but it did call any of the suspects or say when the investigation took place.

An anti-corruption crusade introduced in 2017 has noticed that lots of princes, ministers and elite businessmen were arrested at the luxurious Ritz-Carlton hotel in the capital, Riyadh.

Many were held there for weeks and maximum were then released after accepting monetary settlements. Authorities said they had recovered more than 400 billion Saudi riyars ($107 billion).

The anti-corruption raid led by Prince Mohammed has been described by many critics as a repression and a inauguration.
