Man's hidden cash in the attic and in car stolen by his ex-wife, Cork court told

During the case the complainant said he hid the money in his car and attic rather than banking it because he did not trust the banks.

Cork Circuit Criminal Court heard that the sum of cash involved totalled €56,000 and not €60,000. File photo: Pexels

A Polish man blamed his ex-wife for stealing €60,000 belonging to him which he had hidden behind the chimney in the attic and under the child’s car seat.

Adriana Janur, 39, and her ex-husband Piotr Janur were separated as a couple but continued to live together at their home at Rathowen on the Duntahane Road in Fermoy, County Cork, in January 2020 when the alleged theft occurred.
