Police have arrested three individuals in connection with an ongoing investigation into alleged fraudulent transactions at a local bank in Antigua and Barbuda, according to Antigua.news.
The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) confirmed that the incidents were reported on separate occasions between May 12 and May 18, after suspicious and unauthorised transactions were detected at multiple branches of the financial institution.
Investigators said the reports prompted a series of inquiries, leading officers to several locations where information believed to be linked to the alleged fraud scheme was obtained.
Three suspects were subsequently taken into custody on suspicion of fraud-related offences. Police have not yet disclosed the identities of the individuals or revealed the sum of money allegedly involved.
The suspects remain in police custody as the investigation continues.
Authorities are urging anyone with information that may assist the investigation to contact the Criminal Investigations Department or the nearest police station.
