RIYADH — Attorney General and Chairman of the Public Prosecution Council Sheikh Saud Bin Abdullah Al-Mujab issued a decision to establish specialized units in investigation in money fraud crimes.

This decision reflects the Public Prosecution’s keenness to combat money crimes in a direct and precise way and out of its belief of the dangers of these crimes on the economies of individuals and the community, and criminal governance in procedures taken through allocating an independent unit concerned with this issue to be tasked with examining all money fraud cases, especially organized crimes that are run through cross-border networks.

These units will be formed of specialists in money fraud crimes from members of the Public Prosecution who have received scientific and practical training programs in investigating such criminal patterns, and ways of tracking perpetrators and stolen money through fraud.

The Public Prosecution seeks to realize its main targets of limiting crime in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and judicial participation with stakeholders to reach security and stability for financial transactions and protecting them of all forms of crime. — SPA
