Bolt learned of the discrepancy between his accounts on Wednesday, Walker said. “All appropriate steps have been taken to sort out the situation,” the athlete’s manager said, noting that he might not disclose the exact amount of damage caused to the Olympic champion.
According to Gleaner, a former employee of an investment company who is suspected of defrauding many Stocks and Securities Limited accounts, one of which contained Bolt’s money, may be involved in the case.
Bolt is an 8-time Olympic champion and 11-time world champion, he also has two silvers and a bronze in world championships. He made his debut for the Jamaican national team in 2004 at the Athens Olympics. Bolt is the only athlete to win the 100m and 200m at three consecutive Olympics (Beijing, London and Rio de Janeiro) and holds the current world records in the 100m (9.58 seconds) and 200 m (19.19). In addition, the world record in the relay at a distance of 4 × 100 m (36.84) was set in 2012 by the Jamaican team, in the final stage of which Bolt ran.
