Probe body submits report on BB heist to Muhith
Dhaka: The 3-member committee, formed to investigate the Bangladesh Bank’s reserve heist, submitted its report to Finance Minister AMA Muhith on Wednesday.
The probe committee, led by former BB governor Farashuddin, handed over the report to the finance minister at about 6:15pm.
Bank robbers successfully made five transfers out of the Bangladesh bank’s account at the New York Federal Bank. The request appeared to come from a Bangladesh server, and they supplied the correct bank codes to authenticate the transfers, the New York bank said.
Of the $101 million they stole, $80 million ended up in accounts located in the Philippines, and $21 million went to Sri Lankan accounts.
