A 33-year-old ANSA McAL salesman found himself before City Magistrate Judy Latchman on Monday accused of embezzling over $23M from his employer.
Apollos Manoharlall was charged with five counts of embezzlement and was released on $2M bail after denying the charges.
It is alleged that from March 30, 2017 to April 7, 2017, the accused embezzled the monies which were taken into possession on behalf of his employer. The sums were $4.5M, $1.9M, $6.3M, $5.5M and $4.4M respectively.

Manoharlall’s attorney, Sase Gunraj, explained that his client resided at Alexander Village, Georgetown and was the father of one.
The attorney further explained that his client was charged last Friday for a similar charge but the matter was dismissed.
According to the facts from police prosecutor Shawn Gonsalves, the defendant was employed as a salesman by ANSA McAL and had taken the monies from the owner of P&S Enterprise. He was supposed to hand the monies over to his employer, but failed to do so.
The prosecution made no objection to bail and the magistrate released Manoharlall on $400,000 bail on each count. The matter is adjourned until July 17 for reports.
