They Stole from the Dead, and Then Stole from His Heirs

Two directors of a construction company were sentenced to five months in prison by the Court of Appeal for fraud and theft of €41,122.48. The case involved the sale of a property in Pissouri, which the company had purchased but the transfer of ownership had not been completed before the original owner's death. After the owner's death, the company agreed with the heirs to sell the property, but instead of paying them the agreed amount, the directors emptied the company's bank account through cash withdrawals.
