Abu Dhabi – Mubasher: The Dubai Financial Market (DFM) on Sunday denied social media posts regarding a former employee who took over AED 1.8 billion through forged cheques.
This case had taken place in 2015 and the recently published reports are fake as it was already settled by the judiciary, according to an official statement.
The recently released figures regarding the case are false as the stolen sum back then was AED 1.8 million, not AED 1.8 billion, the DFM highlighted.
The DFM has not incurred any losses resulting from this case, the local bourse stressed, noting that AED 448,000 stolen by the former employee were immediately taken back, as well as two other cheques.
