2017年沙地阿拉伯整肅

2017年沙地阿拉伯整肅,是指沙地阿拉伯自2017年11月以來,由王儲穆罕默德·本·薩勒曼領導的反腐委員會抓捕了許多重要的王子、政府官員以及商界人士。多達五百人在此次清洗中受到抓捕。[1]

經濟學人》將這次借反腐打擊政敵鞏固權力的行動與中共中央總書記習近平領導的中共十八大以來的反腐敗工作相提並論。[2]

Google波斯灣前公共政策主管薩姆·布拉特伊斯(Sam Blatteis)認為,「這是中東與開放政策最相似的事情」,其他商人們將此次清洗同俄羅斯總統普京俄羅斯寡頭英語Russian oligarch具有政治目的的打擊進行比較。[3]

新聞周刊》認為,此次反腐抓捕理論上有三種動機:純粹的反腐鎮壓,一個攫取金錢的計劃,或準備接管王權。[4]

在反腐運動期間,被拘捕者被囚禁在利雅得麗思卡爾頓酒店[5][6]私人飛機也被禁止起飛,防止嫌疑人離開國家。[6]

此次整肅使得前國王阿卜杜拉的派系被排除在核心之外,且穆罕默德王儲成功鞏固了其對沙地三支安全部隊的控制權。[6]

作為此次鎮壓的一部分,沙地阿拉伯的銀行凍結了超過1700個賬戶。[7]根據華爾街日報報道,沙地政府針對了超過八千億美元的現金及資產。[3]

沙地總檢察長謝赫·索德·艾爾·莫特耶布在一份聲明中宣稱此次逮捕「僅僅是肅清一切腐敗的生命進程的開始」。他補充到這些被拘留者將獲准使用法律顧問,保證使審判「以及時而公開的方式」進行。[8]與此同時,薩勒曼國王任命了20多位新法官。[9]
