- The shareholder and sole director of three BVs conducting a car business knew that the administration was not in order and had to partly conceal incorrect VAT returns due to turnover achieved and wrongly deduct VAT.
- The BVs did not provide the requested records during due diligence. A criminal investigation was launched, in which the public prosecutor calculated the VAT fraud at € 158,148.
- The man actually led the VAT fraud at the car dealers and did not take any steps to ensure proper administration.
- The court sentenced the man to a suspended prison sentence of eight months with a probationary period of three years and 240 hours of community service.
