Bareskrim Sita Uang Rp1,9 Miliar dari Markas Judi Online Internasional di Hayam Wuruk

JAKARTA - The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police confiscated money worth Rp. 1.9 billion from the disclosure of an international online gambling crime case in the Hayam Wuruk office area, Jakarta.

Director of General Crime of the National Police, Brig. Gen. Wira Satya Triputra, said that in addition to the rupiah currency, the police also seized foreign currencies worth 53.82 million Vietnamese dong and 10,210 US dollars in the disclosure of the case.

"This is a variety of currencies. Later the details may be further conveyed, but that's for sure," said Wira, Saturday, May 9, as reported by ANTARA.

In the future, the National Police will trace the flow of funds in the case and delve into the server (server) or internet protocol address (IP) on the online gambling site communication network.

As for the disclosure of the case, 321 foreign nationals (WNA) have been arrested, with 275 of them being named as suspects.

Wira explained that the foreigners had been running an online gambling business at the location for about two months.

However, based on the results of the examination, the building in the Hayam Wuruk district office which is the place of disclosure of the case is purely only an operational place for online gambling.

"For their residence, they are located around the tower," he said.

Meanwhile, he said that most of the foreign nationals who were arrested already knew the purpose of being brought to Indonesia to work for an online gambling company.

However, so far, Wirameny conveyed that the foreign nationals who were arrested were the perpetrators, not the brains.
