The Ministers’ Court has scheduled the case concerning the secret expenditures of the Ministry of Defense, in which former Defense Minister Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad is accused, for a ruling on December 23 next year.
During his trial, Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad submitted a check for the amount he was accused of embezzling, requesting that it be handed over to the Enforcement Administration.
Previously, the Standing Investigation Committee for the Ministers’ Court referred Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad to the Ministers’ Court, following a complaint filed by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousif regarding violations related to the secret expenditures of the Ministry of Defense.
