Aggravated embezzlement represents a crime of particular relevance in the Italian legal landscape. Understanding its legal implications and consequences is essential for those facing this situation.
Embezzlement occurs when an individual unlawfully takes possession of someone else's property or value, which they have legitimate possession of, with the intention of using it as if it were their own. This behavior becomes aggravated when particular circumstances arise that increase the severity of the crime, such as abusing a fiduciary relationship or using fraudulent means.
The penalty for aggravated embezzlement can vary significantly depending on the specific circumstances of the case. Typically, it involves imprisonment from two to six years and a fine that can range from 1,000 to 3,000 euros.
The expiration of a crime is the period after which it is no longer possible to pursue the offender criminally. For aggravated embezzlement, the statute of limitations is generally six years, but it may be subject to suspensions or interruptions that extend its duration.
