The forgery was not detected until the un-named, 53-year-old woman had been working at a nursery, as a cleaner, for 15 years.

And the extent of the crime? Alteration of a school record to show that she had completed 6 years of primary school, rather than 5!

Needless to say, this case has caused an uproar in Greece:
“This decision is not simply inhuman. It is another very indicative sign of permanent pathogens in the criminal justice system.” — Hellenic League for Human Rights
