A municipal manager in Skåne is suspected of having embezzled 5.5 million kronor from several municipalities and is now being prosecuted for multiple crimes, reports SVT News Helsingborg.
According to the indictment, this was done by creating and approving false payments.
I don't understand how the employer didn't discover it earlier. It's strange that it has gone on for so long, says prosecutor Sofia Seijsing to SVT.
The woman is also being prosecuted for taking out loans of 1.9 million kronor in her then-partner's name without his knowledge. The woman admits to the crime.
Two relatives of hers are simultaneously being prosecuted for money laundering.
