The Anti-Corruption Prosecution, under the jurisdiction of the Tripoli Court of Appeal, has ordered the detention of a former official from the accounting department of the Jumhouria Bank’s branch management in Tripoli, on charges of embezzling thirteen million dinars from the bank’s funds.
The competent prosecutor initiated an investigation into the case. The inquiry procedures confirmed that the accused orchestrated the embezzlement, disguised the source of the funds and their related rights, before withdrawing them with the help of several of her relatives.
Based on the preliminary investigation results, the Public Prosecution decided to detain the accused pending the investigation and issued orders to arrest and bring in the remaining participants in the crime.
