Federal prosecutors have asked for a change in the bail conditions of Rob Bankman-Sam Bankman-Fry, the former CEO of FTX, to avoid further attempts to jeopardize witness testimony.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) has asked U.S. District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan (Lewis Kaplan) to prohibit Bankman-fried from communicating with "working or ex-boyfriend employees" of FTX or Alameda, according to court documents filed on Jan. 27.
The request was made after the investigators accused Bankman-Fry of trying to "endanger" Steiger's testimony by signalling and emailing Ryan Steiger, the current general counsel of FTX US, on January 15th. The file references:
"I really want to get back together and see if there is a way for us to maintain innovative connections, to use each other as network resources as much as possible, or at least to check our connections."
The prosecutor also strictly forbids Bankman-Fry to apply communication applications that encrypt data.
The defendant shall not encrypt all data or make short voice calls or messaging applications, including but not limited to Signal.
The document further claims that the Bankman-Fry application of Signal is consistent with the use of the application to block the purpose of "historical time".
It was previously reported that Bankman Fried denied joining or knowing about an "online fraud" WeChat group in Signal hours before he was arrested by Bahamian police in December 2022.
According to reports, one of the members of the chat group included members of Bankman-Fry 's key social circle, including FTX founder Prince Xiao, FTX technical engineer Nishad Singh and former Alamida CEO Caroline Ellison, who is reported to have used the group to push secret information about FTX and Alameda before bankruptcy.
Previously, it was reported that the bankruptcy proceedings meant that FTX's lawyers made up a lie on January 26th and that Bankman-Fry 's immediate blood relatives should be interrogated about any financial benefits they might have received from the trading center.
