A senior official at a Tripoli bank branch has been remanded in custody over allegations of embezzling nearly one million Libyan dinars.
The Assistant Manager of the Republic Bank's Academy branch stands accused of misappropriating 904,837 dinars by using forged documents, Libya’s Public Prosecutor’s Office confirmed in a statement.
The prosecution alleges the suspect exploited his position to access public funds illegally.
This case is the latest in a series of financial misconduct investigations. In recent years, numerous officials from commercial banks across Libya have faced prosecution over corruption, embezzlement, and abuse of office.
