The top Egyptian official tasked with investigating corruption is now the subject of an investigation himself — more than one, actually.

This week, many members of Egypt's parliament are calling for a fact-finding committee to investigate Hisham Geneina, head of the Accountability State Authority (ASA), and his claims of government corruption.

That committee would be in addition to the president's fact-finding committee, consisting of the head of the Administrative Control Authority, an adviser appointed for Geneina and three representatives of the ministries of interior, planning and finance. On Jan. 12, the president's committee issued a detailed, strongly worded report. Its findings, which were broadcast on Egyptian national television, accused Geneina of attempting to mislead the public, making exaggerated statements, deliberately omitting information and misusing the term corruption.

The committee said it would submit its report to parliament and the National Anti-Corruption Coordination Committee, headed by the prime minister and including all concerned parties, to review and examine the details of the study and take necessary legal action.
