What is the ruling regarding company funds stolen by its manager during working hours? Is the company or he responsible for these funds? Do the foreign partners bear any responsibility for this?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The manager is a private employee who is not liable for company funds stolen from him during working hours, unless he transgressed or was negligent in their safekeeping; otherwise, he is liable for them. The loss is borne by all company owners in proportion to their capital.
