Tanvir Hassan Zoha, a 34-old security researcher, was lost when he accused Bangladesh's central bank staff of negligence, which facilitated a theft over 81 of millions of dollars.
Στις 5 Φεβρουαρίου του 2016, οι hackers απέκτησαν πρόσβαση στους λογαριασμούς της κεντρικής τράπεζας του Μπαγκλαντές στο US Federal Reserve Bank της Νέας Υόρκης και προσπάθησαν να κλέψουν 1 billion dollars. Their attempt to transfer the money was stopped by a simple typographical error, but they had already been able to distribute 81 million dollars.
At research which followed, the researchers security officials found malware and a faulty printer, while also saying Bangladesh central bank officials were not following security procedures. So the bank manager and two deputy managers had to leave their jobs after the scandal.
Zoha family members said the researcher met with a friend at 23: 30 on Wednesday evening, 16 March. When they came back home they stopped and put them in two different cars.
Friend Zoha was abandoned some time later somewhere in the city (Dhaka) and turned his home to 02: 00 am, the next day. He then contacted the Zoha family, who informed him that the security researcher had not returned to his home.
Meanwhile, media reports have outraged the people of Bangladesh, who are already annoyed by the fact that government officials nearly nearly lose 1 a billion dollars out of their money.
