A former financial controller of multi-sector recruiter Infinity Consulting Solutions has this week been sentenced to up to seven-and-a-half years in prison for embezzling nearly $1.4m (£860k) and falsifying company books.

According to online legal news service Law360, New York Supreme Court Judge Ronald Zweibel sentenced Robert Dayan to between a two-and-a-half and seven-and-a-half year prison term.

Dayan had pleaded guilty to one count of grand larceny in the first degree and another count of falsifying business records in the first degree.

Prosecutors said Dayan directed more than 150 unauthorised company cheques to himself. He used the funds to buy jewellery, household furnishings and luxury cars, as well as pay off his mortgage, credit cards and other expenses.

He also spent over $80k on expensive meals and entertainment, and took out about $200k in cash withdrawals.
