The former head of the Sparkasse Georg Bromme (73) appeals again against the judgment imposed on him in the second Sparkasse process.

That became known on Tuesday evening.

Miesbach/Munich

- After another suspended sentence in connection with the so-called Miesbach savings bank affair, the former CEO of the Kreissparkasse Miesbach-Tegernsee, Georg Bromme, is filing an appeal.

The decision was made after a detailed discussion, the 73-year-old's lawyer told the German Press Agency on Tuesday.

He now wants to wait for the written reasons for the verdict, but assumes that the public prosecutor's office will also appeal.

In a new trial about expensive gifts at the expense of the district savings bank, the district court in Munich II had again sentenced Bromme a week ago for breach of trust.

However, the former CEO received a sentence of one year and eight months, which was two months higher than in the first trial.

The ex-CSU district administrator and former head of the supervisory board Jakob Kreidl, on the other hand, received eleven months again.

Bromme and Kreidl had previously had to answer for the affair over expensive gifts, luxurious trips and birthday parties at the expense of the bank.

Bromme and the public prosecutor's office had lodged an appeal against the judgment at the time.

In 2021, the Federal Court of Justice largely confirmed the judgments of the regional court.

In the case of some allegations, however, the judges in Karlsruhe saw a need for renewed negotiations.

In addition to suspended sentences, the accused were also sentenced to community service.
