Lab on a supermarket branch: Years of infidelity in the embezzlement of cash income of 135,000 euros

The former branch manager of a supermarket in Berlin is under charge of charges. He is accused of keeping cash income over a period of almost two years, which he should bring to the bank. The Berlin General Prosecutor's office confirmed on Monday that the charges were collected for infidelity against the 34-year-old man.

The branch manager was responsible for packing the supermarket daily revenue in special safe bags and then bringing them to the bank in order to pay the money into the supermarket account. However, between January 2020 and December 2021, he is said to have brought a total of 66 of these safety bags to the bank and instead kept up for himself. This enabled him to acquire almost 135,000 euros.

The crime remained undetected over a longer period of time, but the case was finally uncovered. The former branch manager now has to answer for infidelity. The Criminal Code provides for such an act for a prison sentence of up to five years or a fine.

The Berlin General Prosecutor emphasizes that these allegations are serious crimes and that they decide against such violations. Infidelity is a breach of trust and leads to considerable financial damage to the affected company.

The presumption of innocence naturally applies to the accused until his guilt in court is undoubtedly determined. The process will show whether the allegations are true against the former branch manager and what consequences will come to him.
