With these findings, investigators carried out searches and confiscation activities.For the search, investigators conducted three different locations, namely at the West Sumbawa Perusda Office in Menala Village, a paving block business in Telaga Bertong, and a CV PAM business in Banjar Village, belonging to a suspect from a West Sumbawa Perusda partner with the initials EK.From the results of the search, investigators confiscated a number of documents and computers related to information on partnership activities with CV PAM.For confiscation related to a number of assets belonging to the suspect, investigators confiscated four assets in the form of land belonging to the suspect EK.

Both have already been detained by the prosecutor.Dalam proses penanganan, jaksa pun melakukan pengembangan kasus yang mengarah pada dugaan tindak pidana pencucian uang (TPPU).The prosecutor investigated the allegation from the existence of documents of an unclear flow of money sourced from the management of capital investment funds. A number of official names appeared on the list of recipients of the flow of money.However, Rasyid stated that his party was still limited to investigating. For the continuation process of handling money laundering offenses, his party still has to wait for the main criminal decision related to corruption."We are waiting for the initial criminal (decision), then the TPPU will continue," he said.
