A long-time employee testifies in the Wirecard trial. During the entire time, she never knew anything about the part of the business that supposedly provided the lion’s share of the profits.
She was actually there long enough: the witness worked in sales at Wirecard, with a focus on gambling, for almost a decade. Not in top management, more in the engine room – but their customers were part of the core of Wirecard’s clientele. Nevertheless, Hristiana D. claims to have had no knowledge of the business, which contributed the largest share of the group’s sales and profits for years. Transactions via third-party partners in Asia who processed payments through Wirecard? “No,” she says, she didn’t see anything about it and she didn’t have any business relationships there either.
