What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

An Alberta Securities Commission panel found that Shahin Mottahed, former CEO of Target Corporation, breached Alberta securities laws and perpetrated fraud on investors. Between October 2019 and February 2021, Mottahed diverted nearly $2.3 million from Target Corporation to Performance CBD Brands Corp., a private venture he controlled. He concealed this diversion by causing Target Corporation to issue false or misleading disclosure documents, including financial statements and news releases.
