The Anti-Corruption Commission has launched an investigation into e-commerce platform Evaly over charges of embezzlement of more than Tk 3.38 billion from customers and merchants.<\/p>\n

The firm has allegedly laundered the money taken from the customers in advance. It owes the merchants the funds, according to the charges.<\/p>\n

The national anti-graft agency had begun examining the company\u2019s activities earlier.<\/p>\n

Now the ACC department dealing with money laundering charges has decided to investigate the firm after the commerce ministry filed a \u201cspecific\u201d complaint on Jul 4.<\/p>\n

ACC Deputy Director Mamunur Rashid Chowdhury and Deputy Assistant Director Muhammad Shihab Salam were tasked with investigating Evaly on Thursday, said ACC spokesman Muhammad Arif Sadeque.<\/p>\n

Mohammad Rassel, managing director and CEO of the digital marketplace, could not be reached on his phone for comment.<\/p>\n

The commerce ministry attached to the written complaint a seven-page report by the Bangladesh Bank that found that Evaly\u2019s net asset was worth around Tk 917 million and the firm\u2019s liabilities were over Tk 4.07 billion on Mar 14.<\/p>\n

It took Tk 2.13 billion in advance from the clients and around Tk 1.9 billion worth of products from the merchants.<\/p>\n

So, its current assets should have been at least Tk 4.03 billion, but the central bank found Evaly\u2019s assets was only worth Tk 651.7 million.<\/p>\n

With its current assets, the company can supply products to or refund or pay only 16.14<\/p>\n

percent of its customers and merchants, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the Bangladesh Bank could not trace Tk 3.38 billion, which includes advance and products taken by Evaly from the customers and the merchants.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt appears that the Tk 3.38 billion was possibly embezzled or transferred illegally somewhere else.\u201d<\/p>\n

The commerce ministry asked the ACC to take legal action against Evaly if financial irregularities are found in the investigation.<\/p>\n
