Police are seeking a 35-year-old man, employed as a cashier at a branch of Hellenic Post (ELTA) in the central city of Larissa, after he failed to turn up for work on the same day that 1.3 million euros was found to be missing from the post office’s safe.
According to police, the safe was full of clothes.
Bank staff told officers that the 35-year-old had come to work last Friday carrying a rucksack that he had said contained clothes for relatives whom he would be joining on vacation over the weekend.
Officials at ELTA refused to comment.
