The Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimsus) of the North Kalimantan Police (Kaltara) has named six suspects in the alleged fictitious credit case at Bank Kaltimtara.

The Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimsus) of the North Kalimantan Police (Kaltara) has named six suspects in the alleged fictitious credit case at Bank Kaltimtara. This determination was made after investigators found indications of structured irregularities through the use of a fictitious Work Order (SPK) as a credit guarantee.

The Dirkrimsus Polda Kaltara Kombes Dadan Wahyudi revealed that the Investigative team identified 47 credit facilities suspected of using a fictitious SPK. Among them, as many as 25 credit facilities are in the Regional Office of Kaltara, consisting of 17 in Nunukan and 5 in Tanjung Selor.

"To uncover this case, investigators have examined 100 witnesses from internal banks, debtors, to bouwheers. Five experts were involved to strengthen evidence, including state finance experts, criminal and banking," said Kombes Dadan, Wednesday, December 3.

"Based on the BPKP audit, the state suffered a loss of Rp208 billion," he continued.

The six suspects, each with the initials DSM, SA, DA, RA, BS, and AD, have been detained, namely four suspects detained at the Kaltara Police, while BS and AD are undergoing detention in Cipinang Prison for being involved in other cases.

"Two of them are former heads of Bank Kaltimtara branches," said Kombes Dadan.

He emphasized that for the recovery of losses, investigators had confiscated assets worth around Rp. 30 billion, cash Rp. 3.89 billion, and a 22 LR caliber Walther PPKS pistol along with two permits.

"The tracing of assets from this crime will continue to be carried out," he said.

Disclosure of this case involves cooperation with the OJK, KPK, the Prosecutor's Office, and the management of Bank Kaltimtara. In addition, the Kaltara Police ensured that law enforcement would be accompanied by strengthening banking risk mitigation with OJK and Bank Kaltimtara so that similar cases would not be repeated.

"Collaboration across institutions is important to ensure that the handling of cases runs thoroughly," he concluded
