UAE oil trader GP Global uncovers fraud among employees - letter | ZAWYA MENA Edition:

United Arab Emirates-based oil trader GP Global has uncovered fraud within the company and filed criminal complaints against some of its employees, its legal representative said in a letter to the company's clients on its behalf.

"Few employees have colluded with external entities using the Covid-19 (lockdown) and work from home arrangement to defraud the company and its customers," Arun Abraham, legal consultant and partner at UAE-based Salam Advocates & Legal Consultants said in the letter reviewed by Reuters.

Salam Advocates were advising GP Global on "the internal investigation that was underway," Abraham told Reuters, confirming that the letter had been sent out to some of GP Global's clients last week.

Based on preliminary investigations, "criminal complaints have been filed against few employees in Sharjah and Fujairah," Abraham said in the letter.
