A criminal court in Doha has found a bank manager guilty of stealing QR132,000 from a client’s account and awarded him a five-year jail sentence and termination from the service, local daily Al Sharq has reported.
The accused was also asked to repay the amount to the account holder. The Public Prosecution found that the bank manager sent an e-mail to the bank’s central operations department requesting it to link ‘his’ mobile number to the account concerned.
Making use of his position as the manager of another branch of the same bank earlier, the accused had requested to issue a new debit card and withdrew money from the account in question.
The court awarded the jail sentence to the manager both for stealing the money and also for causing extensive damage to the bank. He was sentenced in accordance with sections 149,150 and 158 of penal code.
