The account that made the transaction has been blocked. Attempts to disburse can also be thwarted.
"We can block it from being disbursed first thanks to assistance from Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK)," he said.
Whisnu said the detection of the transaction to be disbursed was based on the investigation by the PPATK team. The information obtained is that there are transactions abroad, precisely in the Caribbean Islands.
"Mr. Ivan (Head of the PPATK) has conveyed that the Binomo is in the Bahamas Island, the outermost country, and there are transactions abroad. We have asked PPATK friends for help in tracing," said Whisnu.
In addition, investigators and the PPATK continue to coordinate to confiscate Indra Kenz's assets abroad. So, later it can be used as evidence of the proceeds of the crime of money laundering (TPPU).
"We are currently investigating and collaborating with the PPATK to coordinate so that the proceeds of crime abroad can be transferred here as evidence, so we immediately cooperate with overseas the PPATK," said Whisnu.
