Postman who stashed 3,300 letters gets suspended sentence
05/01/2018
A POSTMAN who stashed the mail for 11 years as he could not be bothered to deliver it has been sentenced to two years in jail.
Juan José P. T., who covered rounds in Ibi (Alicante province) and Ontinyent (Valencia province) between 2002 and 2015, had hidden 3,272 letters in his garage in Alcoi (Alicante) since 2004 to avoid having to work his shift.
The State post office took him to court, and the process has just finished after nearly three years following an appeal and an out-of-court settlement between the State Law Service and Juan José's defence.
He has been fined €1,800 and banned from working in the public sector for the next four years.
His two-year sentence will remain suspended until then, meaning he will not have to go to jail as long as he does not commit any further criminal offence between now and December 2021.
