Feb. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Daniel Bonventre, the ex-director of operations for Bernard Madoff Investment Securities LLC, was arrested by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation as part of its investigation of fraud at the defunct firm.

Bonventre, 63, was arrested this morning at his home in Manhattan and is scheduled to appear in federal court later today, according to James Margolin, a spokesman for the FBI.

Madoff, 71, is serving a 150-year prison term after pleading guilty last year to the largest Ponzi scheme. New York- based Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC is being liquidated by the Securities Investor Protection Corp.

Yusill Scribner, a spokeswoman for Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, didn’t immediately return a voicemail message seeking comment.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A former director of operations for imprisoned Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff's investment firm has been arrested, the FBI said on Thursday.

Daniel Bonventre, 63, was arrested at his Manhattan residence, and is scheduled to appear later Thursday in Manhattan federal court, the agency said.

No further details were immediately available. A spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in New York declined to comment.

Bonventre would be the sixth person to face criminal charges over the December 2008 collapse of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC.

The firm was a base for a decades-long swindle that investigators have estimated at $65 billion.
Madoff pleaded guilty last March, and is now serving a 150-year sentence at a North Carolina federal prison.
