Former Wirecard CEO Markus Braun has been arrested on charges of inflating the company's balance sheet, prosecutors in Munich said on Tuesday.
Braun resigned on Friday after the German payment service provider said auditors at EY couldn't locate 1.9 billion euros ($2.1 billion) of cash on its balance sheet. On Monday, the company said it was likely that those funds do not exist.
Prosecutors said that Braun turned himself in on Monday evening and would be brought to an investigating judge on Tuesday who will then decide whether he should remain in custody.
