A Bahraini company that failed to stop paying salaries to an ex-employee gained a court order in their favour to retrieve the money after the person concerned refused to return the money. Court files say the company paid its ex- manager for three months by mistake after the accounts department failed to update their records.
This way, the ex-employee of the Bahraini company received BD10,000 as three months’ salary. By this time, the accounts department officials managed to recognise their blunder and made several unsuccessful attempts to get the money back. As a result, the company decided to move the Court.
The company told the Court that the person concerned didn’t respond to their calls to return the money. The company’s lawyer also proved to the Court that they had compensated the defendant appropriately, and there are no pending payments. Considering the facts, the High Administrative Court ordered the ex- manager to pay back BD10,000 to the company, which he received by mistake.
