According to the High Court of Justice, a woman suspected of forging currency has been summoned to trial by Section XI of the Provincial Court, located in Elche, this Thursday, 3rd April. She is seeking an eleven-year prison sentence for the offence.
The public prosecutor’s summary of events states that a bank filed the complaint against the woman in 2020 after it was found that workers had detected the deposit of counterfeit banknotes totalling €500 into multiple ATMs of a company from a bank account. Businesses that handle a lot of cash frequently deposit huge sums of money through ATMs, particularly on weekends.
A woman was recognised as a suspect after the National Police launched an inquiry. The investigation found that she established a shell company. She was able to open a checking account with the bank using the company’s details. After that, the woman took money out of certain ATMs and deposited money at others. The bills she got were clearly authentic, whereas the deposits were fake. The case filing doesn’t explain where these bills came from.
