Petko Mitevski, former chief cashier of Alpha Bank, was sentenced to 14 years in prison for embezzling more than 21 million leva (over EUR 10.7 million) from the bank, which is the largest bank robbery in Bulgaria’s recent history, the BNR’s reporter Silvia Velikova informed. According to the prosecution, Mitevski embezzled the money between 2008 and 2010. He used forged documents and was facilitated by lax controls and a lack of cameras.
The case against Mitevski ended 12 years after the start of the investigation. In 2016, Alpha Bank was acquired by "Postbank", "Mediapool" reported.
