Munich: 70-year-old wanted to bribe the police with $ 100 – received a fine of $ 1.000

Jan Gruber July 24, 2023 11:07

A 70-year-old American woman attempted to leave the Federal Republic of Germany without a passport at Munich Airport on Saturday, July 15, 2023. She came up with the brilliant idea of ​​offering the federal police officer 100 US dollars in cash as a bribe. According to a statement from the executive, the woman was booked on Lufthansa flight LH414. She stated that she had forgotten her passport on the feeder flight from Athens to Munich. Since she had to change from Schengen to non-Schengen in Munich, she had to pass the federal police passport control. There she first made the officer a verbal offer of a bribe, which he is said to have rejected. She then placed a 100 US dollar bill on the control desk. It was of no use, because the officer filed a complaint for attempted bribery. Since the woman does not have a residence in the Federal Republic of Germany, a deposit of 1.000 euros - in cash against an official receipt - was collected. She was unable to take the flight to the USA because she had to go to the US consulate to apply for an emergency passport.

The aircraft in question was not reactivated even after the worldwide flight ban was lifted. The owner of the D4-CCJ is the leasing company Boeing Capital Corporation, a subsidiary of the US aircraft manufacturer.
