Bangladesh's central bank said today that part of almost USD 100 million allegedly stolen from a reserve account in the United States last month has been recovered.

Suspected Chinese hackers stole the money from the foreign exchange account in the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on February 5, according to a central bank official and media reports.

Some of the money was then illegally transferred online to the Philippines and Sri Lanka, the central bank official told AFP on condition of anonymity.

"Part of the money hacked from Bangladesh Bank's account in a bank in the United States has been recovered," the bank said in a statement, without disclosing the amount found.
