AMMAN — Criminal Investigation Department (CID) personnel have reached a breakthrough in a case involving the theft of $400,000 from a Jordanian airline.
The airline had said a bag containing $400,000 was stolen from its employee after he received it at Queen Alia International Airport, according to a Public Security Department (PSD) statement.
PSD said CID investigators suspected the employee himself due to discrepancies in his testimony.
The suspect confessed to the theft upon further questioning and said he hid the money at his house and pretended it was stolen.
The money was returned to the airline, and the investigation is still ongoing, the PSD said.
