| The alleged theft happened at Franki's shop in Lik Sang Plaza, Tsuen Wan |
A 39-year-old Filipina resident is being sought for allegedly stealing around $690,000 from a Franki Exchange Padala shop in Tsuen Wan which she used to manage.
The
Filipina known to acquaintances as Rheb, was last seen at the shop at the close
of business hours on November 5, the first Sunday of the month, when many
Filipinos customarily send money to their families in the Philippines. This
explained why the shop had more money than usual in its safe that day.

Fellow Filipinos at Lik Sang Plaza in Tsuen Wan where the remittance company has a shop on the second floor said Rheb was seen leaving in a hurry that day, and even passed through a backdoor which she rarely used in the past.
The next
day, she did not report for work, and after her Pakistani supervisor found that
the money that should have been in the shop’s safe was all gone, called the
police.

A police spokesperson told The SUN that the male supervisor became suspicious after seeing that the closed circuit television (CCTV) in the shop was not working. When he went to Tsuen Wan yesterday morning, he found out that the shop was closed and the Filipina staff could not be contacted.
After obtaining a duplicate key to the safe in the shop, the male supervisor found that all the money that should have been there was all gone. He went through the records from the previous day’s transactions and realized that there should have been around $690,000 in the safe.
