2 money exchange workers flee UAE with Dh6.5M

  DUBAI – Police have launched a hunt for two employees of the Atlantis Exchange center in Naif who have fled the country with Dh6.5 million paid by customers. The money was meant was remittance of customers to their families in their home countries. A Dubai Police officer said the two Pakistani suspects fled the UAE with the money two days ago. Reports were unclear if the money was paid over a period of time or were collected in a span of days. Atlantis Exchange located at Abdul Rahim Badri building was closed on Sunday afternoon although it was open in the morning of that day, according to a witness. Customers reportedly crowded in front of Atlantis Exchange after seeing that it was still closed after lunch break and in the wake of reports of the shutdown of six branches of Smart Exchange after its owner fled with millions of dirhams. Atlantis Exchange is not connected with Smart Exchange, a staffer clarified. Some of the customers told Naif Police Station personnel last Sunday night that they wired money to their families in their home countries but the money was not received by their families. Police and UAE Central Bank officials went to Atlantis Exchange Center on Monday to do an investigation but kept mum about the case. Naif police have reportedly recorded 10 complaints from Atlantis Exchange center customers as of Monday night.
