Personnel from the General Department of Criminal Investigations has referred an unidentified Arab expatriate employee of a mobile phone shop to the Public Prosecution on the background of his illegal financial activities, in which tens of those who were in dire need of money were implicated, reports Al-Anba daily.

The suspect allegedly made the victims sign contracts stating that they had access to telephone lines provided and that they undertake to pay the bills for two years.

Although the defendant alleged that the plaintiffs were fully aware of what he was doing and that it was his trade, they claimed that they had been deceived and that the defendant had exploited them and obtained their signature on the document.

However, the plaintiffs claimed they had borrowed KD 150 and now the defendant is asking them to pay more than KD 500. According to a security source, a number of expatriates have filed complaints with the Ahmadi Police Station. The Al-Rai daily said the suspect and the victims are all Egyptians.
