Wirecard Bodyguard Claims Financial Ruin in Fraud Trial

The former driver for ex-CEO Markus Braun testifies about losing €170,000 due to the company's collapse.

The bodyguard served Markus Braun from 2012 until Wirecard's collapse in 2020.
Braun, accused of leading a fraudulent scheme, has been in custody and on trial since December 2022.
The prosecution alleges Braun and associates caused over €3 billion in damages to banks.
Co-defendant Oliver Bellenhaus has admitted to the charges, implicating Braun heavily.
Braun reportedly kept financial troubles hidden, maintaining a facade of business success.
