A bail application was denied on Friday in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate for an accountant accused of defrauding her former employees of millions of dollars.

Charged with fraud is Suzan Bloomfield of a Kingston address. However, she did not enter a plea when the matter was mentioned.

The court heard that while working as an assistant internal auditor at the establishment, Bloomfield allegedly transferred funds from the business account to her personal account.

Reports are that on November 5, Bloomfield attempted to transfer $2.26 million from the company's account to another account without permission from her employers.

The court was told that the transaction did not go through because the bank became suspicious and contacted the employers. However other transactions conducted by the accused were successful.

Bloomfield was apprehended by the police on the job.

One of the proprietors from the company who was present in court told senior Resident Magistrate Judith Pusey that Bloomfield had recently purchased a vehicle for $1.3 million cash.

Further allegations are that when the police went to Bloomfield's house, a search was conducted and two drivers' licences were found.

They had the same photo but different names on them.

She was remanded and a fingerprint order made.

Bloomfield is to return to court on November 18th.
