The public prosecutor accused the Romanian woman of having pressured Thiam into making a payment of 587,000 francs. In an email, she had indirectly threatened to damage her reputation - and pointed out that the matter could be closed with a transfer.
The woman said that she had no malicious intent and that it was not about this sum. She had only sought contact with her former employer in order to settle a dispute about her wage claims peacefully and out of court.
Her defense lawyer pointed out that the labor court had later, after the e-mail had been sent, legally established that Thiam owed his client compensation for vacations and other things that had not been granted. He demanded an acquittal. The judgment will follow later.
