A 38-year-old Indian expat working at the LuLu, a hypermarket chain in Abu Dhabi, has been reportedly absconding after stealing Dirhams 660,000 (Rs 1,49,83,830) in cash, local media reported.
Mohammed Niazi, who hails from Kerala, India, was in charge of the cash office at LuLu hypermarket in Khalidiya Mall in Abu Dhabi.
This came to light after Lulu Group International filed a complaint with the Abu Dhabi and Kerala police against Mohammad Niazi, who has been with the company for 15 years.
As per multiple media reports, the hypermarket authorities started an investigation after Niazi failed to report on duty on Monday, March 25 and also discovered a shortfall of more than Dirhams 600,000 from the cash office.
