Read the court papers: > On the dates shown ( January 2017 to October 2020, the accused received amounts from respective parents as payments of school fees which she was supposed to post in the school relevant system and bank the money with the school bursar. > The accused, unlawfully and with intent to steal, did not bank all the amounts but converted it to her own use in contravention of the Act (Criminal Law and Codification Act.) The fraudulent activity was discovered after the school conducted a verification process involving parents in January. It was then revealed that Hinze had failed to deposit the funds as instructed. An auditing firm, Mariahill Chartered Accountants, was subsequently hired, and they uncovered 234 instances of theft committed by Hinze. No recovered funds have been reported at this time.
