Kannur native returns home with rent money

Sharjah: A complaint has been filed against an accountant at Remax Realtors in Sharjah, a native of Kannur City Azad Road, who was working as an accountant, for embezzling 135,000 dirhams (approximately 23 lakh Indian rupees) from the company he worked for.

He had been working for Remax Realtors, a real estate company owned by UAE native Salim Mohammed Abdullah Al Khayal, for the past 12 years. Through his sincere efforts, he became the trust of the company owner. Then, in January last year, he took a two-day leave to go to Oman due to his father's illness and returned home with his family. However, the person who went home did not contact the company owner or return. Later, when the company's accounts were checked, it was found that he had absconded with 135,000 dirhams received as rent.

A complaint has been filed against him at the Sharjah Al Gharb Police through Salam Pappinissery, CEO of Yab Legal Services, alleging money laundering. In this regard, Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy and Kannur SP have filed a complaint.
