Derya Dikici, a former portfolio manager at Denizbank’s Güneşli
Branch who faced charges of "aggravated embezzlement," was
apprehended by federal agents in the US in 2024 after living there
for approximately 13 years. (!)
However (!), a new development has occurred in the legal
proceedings regarding Turkey’s extradition request. A US federal
court ruled that Dikici should be released—rather than remaining
in custody—pending the completion of the extradition process,
citing new information she presented and "special circumstances."
An investigation had been launched against Dikici over allegations
that approximately $1.8 million was irregularly transferred from the
accounts of seven individuals between 2009 and 2011.
A bank audit suggested that the funds had been transferred to the
accounts of a family that owned oil companies. In her latest defense,
however, Dikici claimed that she had not carried out the transactions
of her own volition.

Dikici argued that she had acted under the pressure and direction of an
individual named O.A., and that the transferred funds were sent to
family accounts managed by O.A., and that she did not personally
benefit from the money.
It was reported that after an investigation was launched against her,
Dikici traveled from Turkey to the US in 2011 and lived at various
addresses over the years.
Dikici, who was apprehended by federal agents in Massachusetts in
April 2024, is currently undergoing extradition proceedings. According
to court records, Dikici had previously petitioned for his release from
custody. The latest ruling paves the way for his release pending the
conclusion of the extradition process.
The claims presented by Dikici in court are merely allegations regarding
the individuals named in the case file and do not constitute a finding of
guilt.
