What happens when a bank worker has stolen money from your account?

curious asked:
A Japanese friend of mine had his account frozen in Japan, because he was under investigation for fraud. He was clearly innocent and the judge cleared his case and he wasn’t charged. The bank refused to unfreeze his account, and his lawyer was planning to sue them. The lawyer hired a private investigater and they found that no money was left in the account. It has been 10 months now that all this bank and police mess has been going on. As this is a Japanese system and a Japanese citizen, I just don’t understand how the bank could withhold his account 5 months after the Judge cleared his case.
