Customers have filed a case against owners and staff of e-commerce platform E-orange for reportedly embezzling around Tk 1,100 crore by not delivering their products.

Md Abu Taher, a resident of Azampur in Dhaka, filed the case on behalf of 37 customers with Gulshan Police Station last night against the owners and staff of the platform, mentioning five names, said Aminul Islam, inspector (investigation) of the police station.

The accused are Sonia Mehjabin, wife of Masukur Rahman, Amanullah, Bithi Akter, Kausar and all other owners of E-orange.

In the case statement, the plaintiffs alleged that since April 28, they have been paying E-orange to buy different products at different times which was supposed to be delivered by the company after a certain time.

"But the company has been cheating us by not delivering the product," they said. 

They claim that by not delivering the goods in the same way, the company has embezzled around Tk 1,100 crore from about one lakh customers including them.
