The female bank employee said that her fiancé had debts and that he directed her to this action by asking, "Can't you somehow arrange money from the bank?"

Officials from a private bank branch located in the Ereğli district of Konya reported the situation to the Ereğli District Police Department after noticing a discrepancy in the bank's accounts. Following an investigation, it was determined that bank employee P.Y. had transferred money to his own account between March and June of 2024. Upon the complaint, P.Y. and his fiancée S.A. were detained in July of last year. After their procedures at the police station, the two suspects were arrested by the court and sent to prison.

UP TO 21 YEARS OF IMPRISONMENT SOUGHT

FIANCÉE GUIDED HIM

In the prepared indictment, bank employee P.Y. stated in his testimony that at the beginning of the events, his fiancée S.A. had debts and said, "Can't you somehow arrange money from the bank?" indicating that she directed him to this act.

"I LOST 20 MILLION 700 THOUSAND LIRA IN CRYPTO EXCHANGE"

P.Y. stated in his testimony that he conducted transactions from the accounts of 49 different customers, and he did this to pay off his and his fiancée S.A.'s debts and to replace the money he had taken during maturity conversions. P.Y. mentioned that he transferred money to the accounts of 25 acquaintances outside of this bank and then deposited a large portion of the money into different bank accounts belonging to himself, paying off his debts with 1 million 500 thousand TL, and said, "I lost the portion of 20 million 700 thousand lira by opening leveraged transactions in the crypto exchange. I transferred 11 million 200 thousand lira to the accounts of 7 people to convey it to my fiancée. These individuals sent the money to the bank accounts of H.D., who is the paper owner of the company owned by my fiancée, and S.A. managed this money himself," he said.
