A woman who stole the proceeds of the sale of a retired GP's surgery when she was working as the victim's carer has been jailed for two years. Nermana Gojak, aged 44, worked as both a carer and a housekeeper for a couple of days a week for the 90-year-old woman for 10 years. Gojak stole €41,380 over five years by making ATM withdraws, using the woman's laser card to purchase items and getting cash back at points of sale. She regularly transferred funds from this deposit account to the woman's current account to allow her easy access to the money. The woman said she became fearful and worried about living in her home on her own and felt financially vulnerable.
