The Department of Combating Counterfeiting and Forgery Crimes at the Criminal Investigation Department in Benghazi announced the arrest of a female employee working in a local bank, on charges of seizing money from the accounts of three citizens.

The details of the case go back to a complaint filed by a citizen, after he discovered that money had disappeared from his personal account and two other accounts that he managed on behalf of his parents.

Accordingly, the Department of Combating Counterfeiting and Forgery Crimes began its investigations in cooperation with the bank’s management, where it was revealed that the employee was involved in withdrawing the amount and transferring part of it to another account, in addition to issuing certified checks without the knowledge of the account holders.

The sources reported that the employee admitted during the investigations to withdrawing the aforementioned amounts, as she signed to receive the checks bearing the value of the embezzled money.

In light of these confessions, the employee was placed in women’s detention, in preparation for referring her to the Anti-Corruption Prosecution to complete the necessary legal procedures.
