In June 1930 Kelemen and his associate and co-owner of their conglomerate "Duray és Kelemen Terménykereskedelmi Részvénytársaság" were accused of embezzlement and as a result were arrested. The case, better-known as the "Equine nutrition-panama", was a military concession affair, where Kelemen's firm supplied the  army with horse nutrition and allegedly bribed logistics officers to bypass the shipment regulations. Overall 29 quartermaster officers and 11 paymasters were arrested. Testimonies of these officers, many of whom received loans from Kelemen's company, cleared up his role and it was proven that he didn't gain any advantages in exchange for the loans. Kelemen was released on probation shortly after. The case was closed in December 1930, all charges against Kelemen and his business partner were dismissed, although many high-ranked military officers were sentenced to several years in prison.
