Four staff at a metal works company have been charged with embezzlement at the Dubai Court of First Instance after they allegedly misappropriated Dh3,178,000.
Prosecutors accused the four employees, including a 41-year-old Egyptian commercial manager, a 31-year-old Jordanian development manager, a 39-year-old Egyptian engineer and a 42-year-old Egyptian interior designer, of embezzling large amounts of money after they forged local purchase order forms. They also forged delivery order forms which they claimed were issued by a third party (another business).
A Tunisian woman, who is at large, has been charged in absentia for possession of the total embezzled amount.
The wrongdoings date back to January 2016. A case was registered at Al Rafaa police station.
An Egyptian executive and general manager, the plaintiff who is also a shareholder, told the prosecutor they discovered the wrongdoings in April 2018. "I received a call from the accounting manager informing me about financial irregularities committed by the first three accused. He told me he found out about the discrepancies after he went through the company's records."
After he met the accounting manager and a senior accountant, the owner said they found purchase order forms of a quantity of glass for their projects, issued from their company, in addition to delivery order forms 'supposedly' issued from another company. Those purchase order forms were approved and signed by the commercial manager.
However, the owner learned from the warehouse keeper and the foreman that the said ordered glass did not reach any of the company's stores or the work sites.
"The commercial manager and the development manager were then called after for internal probe. They confessed there had been no real dealings with the other company," the owner recounted during the public prosecution investigation.
The trial will continue on June 9.
