As many as 360 Saudi and foreign officials holding key posts at the Jeddah Mayoralty will be terminated within a few weeks. The mayoralty has received orders from the Control and Investigation Bureau in this regard, according to official sources.
This disciplinary action follows completion of an investigation into the flood disaster that struck eastern and southern districts of Jeddah on November 25 and claimed more than 120 lives. Makkah Governor Prince Khaled Al Faisal, who headed a high-level committee to investigate the causes behind the disaster, presented the report to King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz on March 5.
As a follow up of the investigation, the authorities have started taking drastic measures to restructure the mayoralty and take disciplinary action against those found guilty of turning the flash floods into a catastrophe.
