A US federal judge on Friday ordered FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried back to prison after prosecutors argued he had violated the conditions of his bail and tampered with witnesses.
US District Judge Lewis Kaplan directed the disgraced former cryptocurrency highflyer, who had been confined to his parent's California home, back into federal custody.
Bankman-Fried has pleaded not guilty to charges of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering, as well as election finance violations.
