A jail sentence of up to eight years looms in front of a 26-year-old citizen of Iran, who illegally withdrew more than €2700 via an automated bank teller machine (ATM) without the approval of the account holder near the end of last year. This was reported to TASR by the spokesperson of the Regional Police Headquarters in Žilina Jana Balogová. Police have accused the man of creating and using an unauthorized device or method to withdraw funds. "From the account, the accused improperly removed cash valuing more than €2700", said Balogová. The accused is being tried while at large.
