Director of Special Economic Crimes (Dittpideksus) Bareskrim Polri Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan revealed that his party found the suitability of the report on the analysis of financial transactions from the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) related to the alleged money laundering crime (TPPU) by Panji Gumilang. This suitability, he said, was obtained by Panji Gumilang's statement after an examination was carried out on Monday, August 7. He admitted that all transactions related to finance at the Indonesian Islamic Boarding School Foundation (YPI) must be based on the order of Panji Gumilang. "This means that he (Panji Gumilang) conveyed that what was conveyed by PPATK friends had a match, that APG's personal account (Panji Gumilang) was used to carry out operations against the foundation," said Whisnu at the National Police Headquarters, Jakarta, Antara, Tuesday, August 8. Penyidikan dugaan TPPU ini dilakukan Dittipideksus Bareskrim Polri berdasarkan hasil analisasi transaksi keuangan dari PPATK yang menduga adanya dugaan tindak pidana foundation, penggelapan, tindak pidana korupsi, dan pengaduan terkait penyalahgunaan zakat. From that report, the National Police conducted an investigation by asking for statements from witnesses, including expert witnesses. "We have studied several witnesses, including 14 witnesses who have been examined and there are still two more witnesses today," he said. The two witnesses examined today, he continued, came from YPI. Investigators conduct research related to the alleged pattern of non-money laundering transactions either structurally or reversed or by staking the flow of funds. In addition, investigators also coordinate with a number of related parties such as PPATK, Ministry of Religion, Attorney General's Office, and BPAK. "The goal is to explore what is the input from PPATK friends," said Whisnu. As for the results of the examination, Panji Gumilang admitted that as Chairman of the YPI Board of Trustees he did or said that all transactions related to YPI finances must all be based on his orders.

"We suspect that there are allegations related to the criminal act of the foundation where hundreds of APG accounts are used to receive boss funds, also receiving the foundation's revenue fund, that's what we are investigating,” he said. After the examination of Panji Gumilang, continued Whisnu, his party immediately conducted a case title to increase the status of the case from investigation to investigation. "This week we carry out a case title," said Whisnu.
