The Public Prosecution has ordered the detention of an employee at Jumhouria Bank, after she was proven to be involved in the appropriation of two million, five hundred and seventy-eight thousand dinars from the bank’s funds.
The Anti-Corruption Prosecution, within the jurisdiction of the Tripoli Court of Appeal, clarified that it investigated a number of illicit banking operations conducted at the bank’s University District branch. The investigations revealed that the employee arranged financial transfers from the bank’s management account and from the accounts of some customers to personal accounts, which enabled her to withdraw the funds in cash.
The Prosecution confirmed that the case is still under expanded investigation to uncover other potential accomplices involved in the operation and to take the necessary legal measures to ensure the recovery of the embezzled funds and the protection of public money.
