Allegedly Money Laundering Results, 2 Luxury Cars From The Riau BPN Regional Office Were Confiscated By The KPK

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) confiscated two luxury cars branded by Toyota belonging to the Head of the Regional Office (Kakanwil) of the Riau National Land Agency (BPN) M Syahrir. It is suspected that the goods were related to the money laundering crime (TPPU) that ensnared him.

"The investigative team found that there were allegations of ownership of two units of luxury Toyota sports and Alphard brands whose source of money came from criminal origins of corruption," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Tuesday, February 28.

Furthermore, these two luxury cars will be evidence of Syahrir's alleged money laundering. His ownership will be investigated from other witnesses.

"We are also investigated further through information from the parties summoned as witnesses," said Ali.

Apart from cars, the KPK has confiscated Rp1 billion from M. Syahrir. It is suspected that this finding was the result of his efforts to hide the proceeds of bribes and gratuities received.

For information, the Head of the Riau BPN Regional Office M. Syahrir has been named a suspect in bribery. He allegedly asked for up to Rp3.5 billion for the management of business use rights (HGU) and received gratuities of Rp9 billion.

In this case, Syahrir allegedly asked for Rp3.5 billion in cash with Singapore dollar denominations. This request relates to the processing and extension of the certificate of business use rights of PT Adimulia Agrolestari (AA).
