Tamweel removes former CEO
- United Arab Emirates: Tuesday, September 16 - 2008 at 07:45
Dubai mortgage lender Tamweel has removed former CEO Adel Al Shirawi, who has been detained by Dubai police as part of a corruption probe, from its board of directors, reported Reuters. The move comes a day after Istithmar World suspended Shirawi as its vice-chairman and removed him as a board director 'in light of ongoing investigations'. Istithmar World, a unit of state-owned Dubai World, said in August that Shirawi and its CFO Feras Kalthoum were being investigated for alleged wrongdoing while in their previous positions at Tamweel. Istithmar World is the largest shareholder in Tamweel, with a 21.6% stake.
