Court Acquitted A Rent Collector Who Was Accused Of Embezzling Rent Proceeds Worth Kd 45,000

The Misdemeanor Court acquitted a rent collector who was accused of embezzling rent proceeds worth KD 45,000 for buildings owned by a businessman. The Public Prosecution had accused the man of expropriating the above mentioned amount that belonged to a businessman who had entrusted it to him based on his work contract as the rent collector at the office of the businessman. During the court session, the defense counsel Lawyer Khawlah Al-Hassawi stressed that her client had denied all charges throughout the investigations. She revealed that her client had abandoned receiving monies from the caretakers of buildings since a year and half and has only been collecting bank cheques, adding that the documents also did not contain any evidences on the collection of the real estate revenues due to which there is nothing to prove that her client took receipts of the rent amounts from the building caretakers.
