Publications by the Office of the Attorney General on its official Facebook page in recent weeks have raised many questions about the involvement of several officials in harming public funds, including illegal financial transfers and embezzlement of public money\u2014behaviors that reflect a lack of responsibility and professional integrity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reach of corruption was not confined to the domestic sphere, but extended to foreign investments as well.The spree of theft in Libya was not limited to men alone; women were also implicated in major corruption cases. A female official in the Accounting Department at the Republic Bank\u2019s Branch Administration in Tripoli was arrested for embezzling 13 million dinars from the bank. She was followed by another employee who seized 2 million and 578 thousand dinars.Accusations also reached the Assistant Director of the Republic Bank branch at the Libyan Academy for Postgraduate Studies, who embezzled 998 thousand dinars. Additionally, an employee at the Republic Bank\u2019s Qadisiyah branch was detained after embezzling 8 million and 255 thousand dinars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Public Prosecution also charged a defendant involved in forging unofficial documents, along with four employees who neglected their duties, enabling others to carry out the embezzlement operation.The chain of investigations continued, leading to a decision to detain the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Development and Investment Holding Company, its General Manager, and project management officials, after they caused the failure to collect 6 million and 457 thousand dinars and inflicted severe damage on the company due to the purchase of a property later found to be located within the route of the Third Ring Road\u2014resulting in its complete demolition.The corruption cases extended beyond the country\u2019s borders as well. The Public Prosecution ordered the detention of the General Manager of the Libyan Foreign Investment Company\u2019s branch in the Republic of Mali over financial and administrative violations in the project to rehabilitate Hotel Africa, which resulted in the disposal of 22 million euros in violation of approved regulations.At the end of last week, another case emerged: the detention of a former General Manager of the National Investment Company under the Ministry of Finance, along with a former Director of the company\u2019s Investment Department, for spending funds outside the purposes of investment\u2014amounting to 55 million and 648 thousand dinars of the company’s money.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
