Bank worker charged with stealing $3.5 million

The money was stolen over a period of almost two years.

Major Fraud Squad detectives have charged a 37-year-old Perth bank employee with stealing $3.5 million.

The Belmont bank recently identified a high-value transfer, and following an audit a number of discrepancies were identified, police said.

It is alleged the money was stolen while the man was employed by the bank between June 2016 and February 2018.

The Mount Lawley man has been charged with one count of stealing as a servant and was set to appear in the Perth Magistrates Court today.
