Four citizens are being investigated by the Public Prosecution for alleged breach of trust in managing a charitable association, and acting in bad faith.
They are accused of betraying the trust and confidence placed in them by illegally disbursing allowances to association workers and others, as well as disbursing financial dues exceeding SR1 million ($266,666) without regard to regulations.
The accused were arrested and referred to the competent court to be sentenced accordingly under the law for combating financial fraud and breach of trust.
The Public Prosecution said that it stood behind the legal protection of nonprofit charitable associations and their resources, and added that harming or exploiting them constituted a crime subject to strict legal accountability.
