The U.S. Justice Department has accused 28-year-old Rikesh Thapa of defrauding his start-up tech firm of more than $1 million in U.S. currency, cryptocurrency and utility tokens. By NelWang

The 28-year-old Thapa was arrested on Wednesday in California and is expected to come before a federal judge for the Southern District of California.

According to the indictment, in 2018, Thapa agreed to receive and hold $1 million of his company’s money in his personal bank account while the firm explored other banking options. Thapa soon began using the funds on personal expenses such as nightclubs, travel and clothing, despite re-assuring the company that he was only holding the money “for safekeeping.”
