Time News Desk: A Dhaka court yesterday asked the Criminal Investigation Department to submit its report on the Bangladesh Bank cyber heist case by April 4.

The CID has now taken 70 dates to complete its probe into the case filed over the heist of $101 million from Bangladesh Bank's account with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in February 2016.

Metropolitan Magistrate Rajesh Chowdhury passed the order after Raihan Uddin Khan, additional superintendent of police and also investigation officer of the case, failed to submit the probe report by yesterday.

At least $81 million was transferred to the accounts in Manila-based RCBC, from where it disappeared into the casinos of the Philippines.

Bangladesh Bank Deputy Director (accounts and budgeting) Zobayer Bin Huda filed the case with Motijheel Police Station on March 15, 2016.

So far, Bangladesh retrieved $15 million from RCBC and recovered another $20 million sent to a bank in Sri Lanka.

On February 1 last year, Bangladesh Bank sued Rizal Bank in a US court to recover $66m of stolen funds.
