The Federal Supreme Court upheld the Thurgau High Court’s decision against Oliver Skreinig (44), the former director of Circus Royal. Among other things, he was accused of mismanagement and neglect of accounting. For this, he received a suspended sentence of 24 months.
In March 2022, the Supreme Court sentenced the former director of Circus Royal to 24 months in prison, 18 of which were conditional. There was also a conditional fine of CHF 50 per day of 120 and a fine of CHF 400 per day.
In 2018, Circus Royal Betriebs GmbH went bankrupt. The old traditional circus had been plagued by money problems for years before. The public prosecutor accused the then-manager of knowing the hardships of the over-indebted company and delaying two bankruptcies.
It is said that he did not keep any accounts and prepare annual financial statements from 2010 to 2018. As a result of these omissions, debts “certainly in excess of one million francs” would have accumulated.
The 45-year-old has been penalized for, among other things, multiple mismanagement and multiple omissions in accounting. The Thurgau High Court banned him from “working as a circus organ or in a similar position” for 5 years after the decision came into force, the Thurgau High Court said on Thursday.
The former ringmaster took the decision to the Federal Supreme Court. There he claimed that neither the indictment nor the Supreme Court decision explained why he was seen as the actual head of circus operating companies. In reality, he had no decision-making authority.
The federal court dismissed the appeal to the extent that it was on March 1. In the reasoning, the Supreme Court explained why it assumed that he was the decision maker, given the complainant’s far-reaching powers and outward appearance.
The unsubstantiated claim that he simply enforced someone else’s orders and called him 20 to 25 times a day was “arbitrarily allowed to qualify as a protective request”. The decision is now final. (pbe/SDA)
