SINGAPORE: An accountant was fined S$3,000 for misappropriating money from her former employer.

Thirty-nine-year-old Torres Necitas Mariano, a Filipino, had pleaded guilty to misappropriating a cheque worth more than S$3,600 belonging to her then employer, AJ Property Services Pte Ltd.

She had allegedly committed the offence on August 18 last year as an accountant of the firm, which is located in Ang Mo Kio.

Mariano had worked for AJ Property since October 2010 and was found to have committed the offence when the Central Provident Fund said it did not receive the cheque.

She could have been jailed up to 15 years and fined but the district judge had taken into account that full restitution had been made to her former employer.
