Agents of the National Police have arrested the treasurer of an association of parents of students (AMPA) in Valencia for allegedly cashing four checks for a total value of 6,800 euros and later modifying the account statements to hide it.
The investigation began after the president of the AMPA of a school in the city learned of the existence of several check collections in the association’s bank account, in which a discrepancy was observed between the statements of the bank operations that the treasurer facilitated with those available in the bank.
After a series of procedures, the investigators found out that the treasurer of the association had cashed four checks for a total value of 6,800 euros, the Police reported in a statement. Subsequently, she had modified the extracts and created fictitious notes, which she delivered to balance the balances and thus hide it from the rest of the associates.
For these events, the agents have arrested the woman as the alleged perpetrator of a continued crime of misappropriation and another of falsification of a public document. In addition, various bank documentation and those relating to the means of payment have been seized.
The arrested woman, 50 years old and Spanish nationality, who had no criminal record, has been released after giving a statement and being warned of the obligation she has to appear before the judicial authority when required.
