JAKARTA - Toto Santoso Hadiningrat and Fanni Aminadia, who are the kings and empresses of the Keraton Agung Sejagat, were arrested by the police. Criminal charges regarding fraud were charged. Both were arrested by the police because there were reports from the public who were worried about their existence.
Karo Penmas Div of Public Relations of the National Police, Brigadier General Argo Yuwono, said that the fraud committed by the two men was by asking for a sum of money from his followers. The money is used to pay for the attributes or clothes of the palace.
"(The money is used) to pay for uniforms, membership cards and they also convey royal symbols," said Argo in Jakarta, Wednesday, January 15.
This case occurred in Purworejo. However, victims of the Keraton Agung Sejagat do not only come from there, from a number of regions. However, the police did not disclose this.
