A lawyer for Usain Bolt said on Wednesday that more than $12.7m is missing from his account with a private investment firm in Jamaica.

Bolt is considered one of the greatest track athletes of all time and holds world records in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay.

He also led his team to a gold medal in the 100-meter relay, although the medal was later vacated after one of his teammates tested positive for a banned substance.
