A customer today filed two separate cases against chairman of scam-hit e-commerce platform Alesha Mart.

Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate court recorded statement of the plaintiff and issued summons against the accused, the lawyer added.

According to the case documents, the plaintiff ordered three motorbikes from the e-commerce site on June 5, and 7 in 2021, and paid the price given on the site in advance.
