A real estate agent is being tried together with three solicitors on suspicion of fraud that allegedly resulted in losses exceeding 4 million euros. The trial took place at the Portimão Judicial Court.
The real estate agent relied on the collaboration of the three solicitors to carry out the transactions. Together, they allegedly sold several houses without the legitimate owners knowing about the sales.
The scheme allegedly allowed the appropriation of significant amounts through these fraudulent sales. Authorities investigated the case for an extended period before bringing it to court.
The four defendants now face trial for the practices they are suspected of, in a case involving an as yet unspecified number of victims and properties sold improperly.
