Well he chose to keep the money, but with the help of the Kaposvár District Prosecutor’s Office, the company managed to freeze the Austrian bank account of the accused and arranged for the money to be transferred back to its own bank account, according to Hvg.hu, it has recovered around 72,000 euros so far, but hopes to eventually receive the full amount wired to its former employee, as for the accused, he has been charged with unlawful appropriation and risks a huge fine.
