JAKARTA - PPATK denied reports that the total savings balance belonging to Nopriansyah Yosua Hutabarat alias Brigadier J reached Rp100 trillion. Based on the results of the analysis, the amount is only hundreds of millions.

"It only contains a few hundred million," said PPATK Head Ivan Yustiavandana to VOI, Saturday, November 26.

However, Ivan was reluctant to disburse the source of the money in Brigadier J's account. Including the question of the alleged account only as a holding.

Instead, he threw the authority to answer that question to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police. The reason is that all the results of the analysis have been submitted.

"Ask Bareskrim, yes. We have submitted the results of the analysis," said Ivan.

The news about the contents of Brigadier J's account that attracted attention began when Irma Hutabarat's YouTube channel revealed several documents for the temporary suspension of BNI accounts.

The document states the name Brigadier J (Nofriansyah Yosua), place and date of birth, occupation, address, account number, nominal value, and type of transaction.

In fact, it was stated that the total savings balance belonging to Brigadier J reached Rp99.99 trillion or almost Rp100 trillion.

BNI Corporate Secretary Okki Rushartomo Budiprabowo has also denied the news. According to him, the document is a report document for the temporary suspension of bank transactions that must be made in accordance with those required and in a format based on PPATK Regulation No. 18 of 2017.

"Third, the mention of the nominal value in the format of the minutes is the value of blocking/temporary suspension of transactions with a nominal maximum number. Therefore, we need to clarify and emphasize here that the nominal value in the minutes document is not a nominal transaction or account balance of customers, as discussed in the Youtube channel," he said.
