A former Indian marketing manager of an event management company here has been charged with embezzling 500,000 dirhams from his employer using forged documents.
The 44-year-old man, identified only by his initials, AK, is said to have embezzled the amount by handing over 15 forged purchase receipts to the finance department of the company that organised nightlife events, the Gulf News reported Thursday.
He then sought urgent medical leave saying he had cancer in a bid to abscond.
Prosecutors have now charged him with abusing his former job and embezzlement.
A 41-year-old woman, identified as PG, has been accused of aiding AK in the crime.
