MATARAM - The Director of General Criminal Investigation of the West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Police, Kombes Teddy Ristiawan, confirmed that the results of the PPATK analysis in the case of embezzlement of the STKIP Bima Foundation funds would be one of the complete files.

"Therefore, we are still waiting for the LHA (final result report) from PPATK", said Teddy in Mataram, Antara, Friday, September 16.

Investigators handled this case based on reports that referred to criminal decisions. "If there is no report, how can we directly refer to TPPU (money laundering crime)", he said.

The appellate judge of the NTB High Court on July 21, 2022, upheld the decision of the District Court of Raba Bima with case number 69/Pid.B/2022/PN Rbi dated May 31, 2022.

The decision at the first instance court sentenced three defendants, namely Muhammad Sopyan to 3 years in prison; Amran Amir 2 years in prison; and Muhammad Fakhri 8 months in prison.

Amran Amir is the Chair of STKIP Bima for the 2016-2020 period, Muhammad Fakhri is the Chair of the Bima IKIP Foundation for the 2019-2020 period, and Muhammad Sopyan, the Head of the General Administration Section for the 2016-2019 period and the Head of the Finance Division for the 2019-2020 period.

The panel of judges at the Raba Bima District Court stated that the three defendants were proven legally and convincingly guilty of committing criminal acts together and continuously committing criminal acts of embezzlement in office.

The verdict is by a single indictment from the public prosecutor, namely Article 374 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) of the 1st Criminal Code jo. Article 64 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code.

However, the criminal decision did not burden the three defendants to compensate for the losses that arose from the results of an independent campus audit of IDR 19.34 billion. This is the basis for the police to develop the case for the ML process.

"The loss is quite large. Therefore, it is necessary to take action through the money laundering offense", he said.
