Iran arrests 19 in $2.6 billion bank fraud
Iran has arrested 19 suspects in a bank fraud which is described as the biggest financial corruption scam in Iran’s history.
In what is being perceived as Iran’s biggest financial scam involving some $2.6 billion (€1.9 billion), Iran has arrested 19 individuals and intends to arrest more.
The finance minister and the central bank governor have been summoned to discuss the case in Parliament today.
According to reports, the fraud involved the use of forged documents to get credit at one of Iran’s top financial institutions to purchase assets including major state-owned companies.
