UNB, Dhaka: Finance Minister AMA Muhith on Thursday said the investigation report on the Bangladesh Bank’s reserve heist will be published after getting the full report. The minister came up with the statement while talking to reporters after inaugurating the Bangladesh wing of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), a London-based multinational professional services network, in the city’s Gulshan. “The investigation report will be made public two months later, after getting the full report of BB reserve heist scandal,” Muhith said. Earlier on Wednesday evening, the three-member probe committee, formed to investigate the country’s largest cyber scam, submitted a preliminary report on the issue to the Finance Minister. Bank robbers successfully made five transfers out of the Bangladesh bank’s account with 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 Fed 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.
