Tonight, Flavio Tzalam is in custody of Belmopan Police after he was charged for misappropriating as much as two hundred thousand dollars from Santander - where he was an accountant.
Reports are sketchy at this time - but 7News has learnt that he allegedly diverted company payments for social security and income tax withholding and cashed them himself. He is charged for forgery and theft.
Reports to our newsroom say he has given a statement to police accepting some wrongdoing, but, in a smart twist, is urging the company to consider setting off the amount against what he is owed in severance. He is represented by Hubert Elrington.
