Bankman-Fried to appear in Bahamas court; U.S. to unveil charges
"….A lawyer for Bankman-Fried did not respond to requests for comment.
The Bahamas' attorney general's office said it expects him to be extradited to the United States.
It was not immediately clear what would take place at the hearing or whether Bankman-Fried would decide to fight extradition, potentially setting up a high-stakes battle.
Police in the Bahamas said in a statement he was arrested due to "various Financial Offences against laws of the United States, which are also offences" in the Bahamas.
The U.S. charges include wire fraud, wire fraud conspiracy, securities fraud, securities fraud conspiracy, and money laundering, the New York Times reported on Monday, citing a person familiar with the matter.
"…The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission separately authorized charges against Bankman-Fried, which will also be filed publicly on Tuesday, SEC official Gurbir Grewal said in a statement."
