The Sixth Section of the Provincial Court of Las Palmas has sentenced this Monday in Lanzarote Natja Bosh, a German woman who admitted to having defrauded and appropriated, along with her husband Mikel Bosh, 72,720 euros from the sale of a house in Playa Blanca.
The Prosecutor's Office and the defense of Natja Bosh reached an agreement by which the woman assumes two years in prison, disqualification from passive suffrage during the time of the sentence, a fine of six months at six euros a day and the payment of court costs.
Meanwhile, the payment of subsidiary civil liability for the defrauded money, 72,720 euros, must be assumed by Natja Bosh and Mikel Bosh jointly and severally. This means that both are obliged to pay off this debt, but that the money can be claimed from either one or the other.
At the time of the events, the couple was professionally dedicated to real estate intermediation. Mikel Bosh acted as sole administrator of the real estate agency I.E.N.S.L., while Natja Bosh was a partner and participant in 20% of the same entity. She also worked as a secretary.
The confessed author sold, along with her husband, a house in Playa Blanca to two buyers, which was owned by third parties, on December 6, 2007. For this transaction, the price set was 280,000 euros.
The agreement was decided to be agreed as follows: 1,000 euros deposited upon signing the private purchase agreement, which were allegedly deposited into the account of the real estate agency I.E.N.S.L.; 20% of the sale price, a total of 65,000 euros, which had to be delivered within 14 days of signing the aforementioned contract. In this case, according to the Public Prosecutor's Office, the buyers transferred 50,000 euros and 6,000 euros in two steps on December 6, 2007. The rest of the money was to be paid in the notarial deed, between February 14 and 29, 2008.
The buyers entrusted the aforementioned real estate agency with the management of the business's sale deed. For this reason, they deposited a total of 15,700 euros into the company.
The defendants did not deliver any amount of money to the owners of the house or return what was delivered to the buyers. Natja committed to paying the subsidiary civil liability and requested that the sentence be canceled.
