The prosecution of Zawia started investigating illegal access to a number of bank accounts belonging to some clients of the Jumhouria Bank, Al-Harasha branch, after they found that there had been bank operations on their accounts, which took pictures of cash withdrawals and internal bank transfers without being requested or authorized by them.

The director of the bank’s branch was investigated too, after proving that he had been involved in carrying out the bank operations in question, as well as by a third-rate relative as the main beneficiary of the funds drawn from the accounts of the clients of the branch.

Thus, the General Attorney issued a decision that the branch director of the bank and the beneficiary should be held in pre-trial detention for embezzlement.
