Track 92 Affiliates Of FPI Accounts To Criminal Elements, Police And PPATK Intensely Coordinate

JAKARTA - Bareksrim Polri is still investigating the criminal elements behind the analysis of the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) related to 92 accounts of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).

Head of Public Relations Division of the National Police, Kombes Ahmad Ramadhan, said that so far investigators are still studying the results of the analysis.

"Currently, investigators are still investigating the results of the analysis from the PPATK regarding the account. Does it fulfill the criminal elements, does it not fulfill it? So it is still being investigated," Ramadhan told reporters, Wednesday, February 3.

Ramadhan said the National Police and PPATK continued to hold coordination meetings to track the flow of these funds. So far there has been no case title.

"Yesterday, February 2, 2021, the National Police and PPATK held a coordination meeting, a corodination meeting in order to equalize perceptions about the PPATK analysis report on 92 accounts of FPI members," he said.

Previously it was reported that the National Police described the ownership of 92 accounts that had been analyzed by the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK). The account holders are former regional administrators to the center of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI).

"The PPATK has analyzed as many as 92 accounts, consisting of the FPI central board, regional administrators, and several individuals related to FPI activities," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Rusdi Hartono to reporters, Tuesday, February 2.

Of the tens of accounts, said Rusdi, consisted of dozens of banks. Later, the results of the analysis will become a recommendation to determine whether there is a criminal offense during a case title.

"The 92 accounts are in 18 banks in Indonesia," he said.

"Of course, the results of the PPATK analysis will be input from Bareskrim Polri and of course Bareskrim Polri will follow up on whether or not there are criminal acts related to the flow of funds in the FPI organization," he continued.

Unfortunately, Rusdi was reluctant to explain the nominal amount of money contained in the tens of accounts. The reason is that it is the investigator's authority.

"We cannot expose it, it does not need to be disclosed in public," he said.
