A Secret Service agent who stole money seized by the government in the investigation of underground drug bazaar Silk Road is now suspected of stealing money in at least two other cases, according to court filings unsealed on Thursday.

In the larger of those cases, he is thought to have been behind the theft of about $700,000 (roughly Rs. 4.7 crores) worth of Bitcoin from a Secret Service account three months after the agency was urged to block his access, the documents say.
