A Dhaka court on Tuesday deferred the submission of the investigation report in the Bangladesh Bank reserve heist case to February 18, as the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) failed to submit the report on the scheduled date.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Jashita Islam set the new date, marking the 92nd extension granted to the investigating agency since the case was filed.
Hackers siphoned off USD 81 million from Bangladesh Bank’s account with the US Federal Reserve Bank on February 5, 2016, using fraudulent SWIFT messages. The stolen funds were later transferred to the Philippines. Investigators believe the cybercriminals may have acted with assistance from a local network.
Following the incident, Bangladesh Bank’s Accounts and Budgeting Department Deputy Director Jobayer Bin Huda filed a case on March 15, 2016, at Motijheel Police Station against unidentified persons under the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012 (amended in 2015) and relevant sections of the Information and Communication Technology Act, 2006, as well as the Penal Code.
The case is currently under investigation by the CID.
