Man jailed for €340,000 fraud of Co Cork company

A 47-year-old man who defrauded his employer of almost €340,000 has been imprisoned for five years.

Dadibaku Ngnupumu pleaded guilty at Cork Circuit Criminal court to operating a computer to make gain for himself or loss to another at Avery Dennison at Cork Airport Business Park on 22 February 2013.

A Congolese national, Mr Ngnupumu from Apartment 1, 25 Gillabbey Street, Cork also pleaded guilty to attempting to defraud his employer of a further €304,000.

The court heard that almost €340,000 had been successfully transferred to bank accounts in Belgium, Germany and Luxembourg, and none of these monies has been recovered.

Defence counsel Alice Fawsitt told the court that her client, a seperated father-of-three, had succumbed to an invitation to make money, and when he wanted to pull back, his daughter was threatened.

Detective Garda Aongus Cotter said it was the first instance of this type of fraud here.  

Mr Ngnupumu  worked in a team which handled rejected payments for European clients of the multi-national company.  

Using an ID card belonging to a former colleague, he transferred monies to accounts set up abroad with names similar to that of existing Avery Dennison clients.

It was spotted when one of their clients' queried a payment.

Garda Cotter said it had a huge impact on the company's business operation here.

Judge David O'Riordan said this was a classic white collar crime.  There was a major breach of trust, a company which came into this State has been defrauded of a significant amount of money and the money has not been returned.

He sentenced Ngnupumu to five years in prison on each of the 17 counts, to serve concurrently.
