Bail was extended for Sagicor Bank employees Malika McLeod, and Trecia Moulton on Friday, who were charged with allegedly defrauding numerous customers of roughly $65 million.

When the matter was called up in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court, Parish Judge, Venice Blackstock Murray was told that the case file was incomplete. The judge set the next court date to February 21, 2023 when the file is expected to be ready.

Partial disclosure is to be done by January 9.

Moulton served as manager at the bank’s Liguanea Branch in St Andrew and is sister to Alicia Moulton White, former vice president for group marketing at Sagicor, who parted ways with the institution recently, during a restructuring exercise, the bank said in a statement.

McLeod served as a personal banker.

Both are accused of creating fraudulent bank accounts and conspiring to defraud the foreign currency accounts of several customers between August and October this year.

Jamaica Observer sources have claimed that the multimillion-dollar fraud could have links to a secret society and a St Andrew-based woman who calls herself a spiritual healer. The sources allege that the money was stolen from customers to fund the secret society which conducts blood and animal sacrifices during rituals.
