Usain Bolt, a legendary sprinter, calls the effort to recoup lost millions a "stressful situation."


 Bloomberg — Usain Bolt, the holder of the world records for the 100 and 200 meters, said on Friday that trying to recover more than $12.7 million that had vanished from his account with a Jamaican investment firm was a "stressful scenario."


According to attorney Linton Gordon, who spoke to Reuters on Jan. 17, the 36-year-old Bolt was alerted earlier this month that his account balance at Kingston-based Stocks and Securities Ltd (SSL) had mysteriously dropped to just $12,000.

Bolt told reporters on Friday, "It's tough, you know, but I think through the years I've competed it has enabled me to realize and focus on what important."



He was introduced as the ambassador of the athletic competition, now in its 50th year, during the Gibson McCook Relays kickoff in Kingston when he gave the speech.


The 11-time world champion continued, "I will put the problem in the hands of my lawyer and focus on my family, try not to worry too much about it since it's a stressful position.


In a statement released on January 12, SSL stated that it had learned of fraudulent behavior by a former employee and had reported the incident to law enforcement. SSL also stated that it has taken measures to secure assets and tighten protocols.

According to the Jamaican Police Force, its fraud and financial investigation teams are looking into "possible fraudulent operations at SSL that are reported to have damaged the accounts of Mr. Usain Bolt among other individuals."



According to Gordon, Bolt's account was created to act as a pension for both his parents and the eight-time Olympic champion.


Bolt retired in 2017 after dominating the sprinting world for a decade, bringing back a sport marred by drug scandals, and becoming a household icon like Muhammad Ali and Brazilian soccer legend Pelé.
