The thirty-one-year-old supervisor of a consultancy company was today charged for the embezzlement of over $3.1 million taken from her place of employment.
Solana Wills was brought before Senior Magistrate Daly at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts. She denied six charges which claim that she embezzled money from her workplace while performing duties.
The five charges allege that between August 2021 and December 2021, she embezzled the total of $3,134,290, which she received on behalf of the Leibrands Financial Management and Tax Consultancy.
She was granted $200,000 bail for one of the charges and released on self bail for the remaining five. The matter was adjourned until a later date.
According to the facts, Wills was responsible for collecting money from clients of the business. This money was then to be used to make payments such as NIS and to GRA, for employees of the clients.
The woman did not make these payments and the employees raised concerns. The clients then contacted the company. Her employer then asked her about the complaints and she allegedly admitted to taking the money. A report was made and the charges were instituted.
