Brussels court acquits school director in 2018 funds embezzlement case

A Brussels French-speaking correctional court acquitted a school director of charges related to the disappearance of cash and misuse of a school bank card in 2018. Both the defense and prosecution argued for acquittal, citing lack of fraudulent intent. The case, which had hung over the defendant since 2018, is now closed, but the ruling does not address systemic issues in school financial oversight.
