Jail Sentence for Two Company Directors - Stole Estate of Deceased Man

The Court of Appeal upheld the conviction of three individuals for the theft of €41,122.48 from the estate of a deceased German citizen. The two directors of the company involved were sentenced to 5 months in prison, and the company was fined €5,000. The directors had used the money for personal use instead of returning it to the deceased's heirs. The court rejected requests for a monetary penalty or suspension of the sentence due to the seriousness of the offense and the lack of remorse. The company was ordered to pay one-third of the court costs.
