Every verified sentence above is arithmetic over figures transcribed twice and reconciled against the report’s printed totals. English names are the desk’s renderings; the Board’s Arabic is authoritative. Audit observations are the Board’s recorded findings, not convictions, and name institutions, never individuals.
