JAKARTA - The Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) suspects that tens of billions of rupiah belonging to former officials of the Directorate General of Taxes at the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) Rafael Trisambodo in a safe deposit box at a bank comes from a criminal act of corruption. He is suspected of receiving bribes.
"The allegation (of the origin of the money in the deposit box, ed) is the result of bribery," said PPATK Chairman Ivan Yustiavandana to reporters, Friday, March 10.
He did not want to specify the number because the investigation was still ongoing. Ivan also did not know when the data would be submitted to law enforcement officials.
"Still in the process at PPATK," he said.
As previously reported, PPATK continues to track Rafael Alun's assets. Most recently they found tens of billions of money in a safe deposit box.
The money stored was not in rupiah denominations, but in foreign currencies. This discovery is different from the account mutation of up to Rp500 billion that was previously found.
As a reminder, Rafael's wealth was in the spotlight after his son, Mario Dandy Satrio, persecuted 17-year-old David. The video of the abuse was widely circulated on social media.
After the case was crowded on social media, Mario's video spread his wealth in the form of a Harley Davidson motorcycle highlighted by netizens. Not only that, but the public also highlighted the ownership of the Rubicon car he used when the persecution took place.
As a result, on March 1, the KPK asked Rafael to come to clarify his wealth which reached Rp56 billion based on the State Administrators Wealth Report (LHKPN).
In the clarification process, the KPK investigated Rafael's assets. Among them, housing whose management company is in the name of his wife in North Minahasa and a house in Yogyakarta.
It didn't stop there, the Rubicon car that Mario often exhibited was also investigated by the KPK. Likewise with Rafael's Harley Davidson, which turned out to be not with a number plate or a fake.
Currently, the KPK has decided to investigate the origin of Rafael Alun's wealth. The reason is that his assets are considered unnatural.
