The prosecution is seeking a seven-and-a-half-year prison sentence for a tax advisor who is accused of keeping over 1,700,000 euros from a company he advised after the owner’s demise. The advisor even went so far as to imitate the owner’s signature to issue promissory notes.
The public prosecutor will charge him with the ongoing crimes of misappropriation and falsification of commercial documents in a trial that is scheduled to commence today, Monday April 27th, at 9:30 a.m. in the Seventh Section of the Provincial Court of Alicante, located in Elche, and conclude the following day, according to the Valencian High Court of Justice (TSJCV).
In 2015, this trusted individual assumed responsibility for the entire company without the businessman’s widow’s knowledge. Additionally, he served as an accountancy and labour advisor.
The prosecution argues that he exploited the woman’s trust in him to use funds from the company by charging receipts or making transfers in operations in which he imitated the victim’s signature in the production of promissory notes for varying amounts until 2020.
