The El Español report described Kwarteng and an associate as meticulous. It said that Kwarteng eventually had such a substantial turnover that he ended up founding a limited company, “Kwartech,” (a portmanteau of his surname and the word “technology.”)
The police began the investigation, which was eventually taken over by the Technological Crimes Unit of the Superior Headquarters of the Balearic Islands. When Kwarteng’s arrest was announced last Saturday, he attended court and was later released on bail set at €3,000 (about $3,300), the reports said.
This is not the first time a scheme like this has been uncovered in relation to the multinational e-commerce company.
