Man Arrested for Gross Embezzlement and Money Laundering from Sparebank 1 SMN

The case is updated.

On 19 January, the police in Trøndelag arrested a man in his 20s who was charged with gross embezzlement from Sparebank 1 SMN and gross money laundering of the proceeds.

State prosecutor Eli Reberg Nessimo at the Trøndelag state prosecutor’s office decided on 29 September 2023 to prosecute the man.

– This is a serious indictment, which involves large sums. However, it is too early to say anything about the level of punishment in the case. The case will be sent to the district court for planning on Monday 2 October, and then it is the court that must assess whether there are grounds for convicting the defendant in the case, says state attorney Eli Reberg Nessimo.

The police state that the money must have been transferred from the defendant’s accounts in Sparebank 1 SMN to one of his accounts in DNB Bank ASA, by making a series of immediate payments. The police then claim that he must have used a bank card to take the money out of the country. Bank accounts in Denmark, Sweden and Germany must be involved.

He is also charged with gross fraud on two indictments, where his ex-partner has been offended for a total of just under NOK 300,000.

The man has previously put his cards on the table and acknowledged everything. He was a hired temporary worker at the bank.
