MATARAM - The Mataram City Police, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) has named a fake prosecutor who used the position of the Head of the Intelligence Section of the Mataram District Attorney's Office with the initials AN as a suspect in cases of fraud and embezzlement.

The Kasatreskrim of the Mataram Police, Kompol Kadek Adi Budi Astawa, said that his party had named AN a suspect based on the results of the investigation case.

"Now the case has been investigated and named AN as a suspect," said Kadek Adi in Mataram, Antara, Thursday, February 3.

In the determination, police investigators also detained suspect AN in the Mataram Police Detention Room. As a suspect, AN is suspected of Article 372 of the Criminal Code on Embezzlement and Article 378 of the Criminal Code on Fraud.

"So according to the results of the case title, the criminal element has met the requirements of AN as a suspect," he said.

Furthermore, Kadek Adi said that at this stage of the investigation there was still a stage of deepening the evidence. Investigators seek this by scheduling a series of witness examinations.

"Because there is evidence that needs to be strengthened again regarding the criminal allegations, so there will still be a series of witness examinations that we have scheduled before being transferred to the prosecutor," he said.

In this case, AN was arrested while he was in the room of the Director of the North Lombok Regional General Hospital (RSUD). Last Thursday's arrest was made thanks to information that came from the Director of the North Lombok Hospital.

In his report, AN went to the Director of the North Lombok Hospital claiming to be the Head of the Mataram Kejari Intelligence Section.

AN at that time promised to stop the case of the North Lombok Hospital, which is currently under investigation for the Special Crimes of the NTB High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati). The promise was given on condition that the money was handed over.

This mode has also been previously executed. The suspect AN managed to launch it in March 2021 against the victim with the initials KSM.

At that time, AN, who also claimed to be the Head of the Mataram Kejari Intelligence Section, promised a stockpiling project in the Lombok Hajj Embarkation Dormitory area.

With the profiteering mode of office, AN asked for a project dowry of Rp. 25 million. The victim, who was dragged into the AN mode, then handed over the token money through interbank transfers worth Rp. 10 million.
