JAKARTA - The trial of the binary options investment fraud case, Doni Salmanan, was held online at the Bale Bandung District Court, Bandung Regency, West Java.

The trial was scheduled to read the indictment. The defendant, nicknamed Crazy Rich Soreang, was known to have attended a trial from the Jelekong Penitentiary, Bandung Regency.

"Intentionally and without rights spreading false and misleading news that results in consumer losses in electronic transactions," said the team of prosecutors led by Romlah. The online trial was conducted using a virtual meeting application and Salmanan listened to the prosecutor's words online during the indictment reading process.

The trial began at around 10.00 WIB in the Kusumah Atmadja Main Meeting Room, Bale Bandung District Court. The number of attendees in the room is also limited according to the rules during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Salmanan when attending the trial looked different because of the short hairstyle. He last appeared in public when the case was transferred from police investigators to the prosecutor's office in early July 2022.

At that trial, he was charged with fraud under the guise of binary options investment. The fraud was allegedly carried out by using the YouTube social media to invite victims to invest in the Quotex platform. He was charged with Article 45a paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 28 paragraph (1) of Law Number 11/2008 regarding ITE as amended by Article 3 of Law Number 8/ 2010 concerning Money Laundering or Article 4 of Law Number 8/2010 concerning the Prevention and Eradication of the Crime of Money Laundering.
