The Aceh Police are investigating allegations of fraud against police officers who want to attend an officer's school allegedly involving the head of a political party.

Head of Public Relations of the Aceh Police, Kombes Joko Krisdiyanto, said the alleged fraud case was reported to the Integrated Police Service Center (SPKT) of the Aceh Police.

"The victim reported the alleged fraud with a loss of Rp. 300 million. This report is under investigation by the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation of the Aceh Police," Joko said as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, May 11.

Previously, a police officer with the initials N reported a head of a national political party to the Aceh Police SPKT on May 8, 2023. N reported that he felt cheated up to Rp300 million.

Based on N's report to the Aceh Police, the hundreds of millions were used for managing the graduation of officers' schools. The management of the police officer's school is suspected through the chairman of a national political party.

Antara N dengan ketua partai politik berinisial M tersebut juga sudah bertemu. Korban menjual mobilnya untuk memenuhi uang yang diminta guna pengurusaan lulusan sekolah perwira tersebut.

However, after the money was handed over, the victim did not pass the officer's school selection. The victim's money was also promised to be returned in full if he did not pass the officer's school, but the reporter had not yet received the refund.

"This report is still being investigated. Investigators as well as the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation of the Aceh Police will summon and ask for information from a number of related parties," said Joko.
