The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed tens of billions in a safe deposit box belonging to former officials of the Directorate General of Taxes at the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) Rafael Alun was one of the material for the investigation. They did not want to comment much on the findings of the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK).

"I think it's part of the ongoing investigation material," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Friday, March 17.

Ali reminded that Rafael's jumbo property investigation would not be conveyed to the public because the mechanism was different from the investigation. This process is usually carried out behind closed doors.

"The investigation is actually a process that must be quiet, quiet. Why, because this is a process to find the criminal incident first. If we then convey it to the public, the process will be disrupted later," he explained.

He said the results of this investigation would be submitted in due course. The KPK must first get a criminal incident before announcing it to the public.

"Later on, the right time, what the results will be, we will convey to the community," said Ali.

Rafael Alun's assets continued to be investigated after the case of abuse by his son, Mario Dandy Satrio, was in the spotlight. Most recently, the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) has blocked his safe deposit in a bank.

The amount of money in this storage reaches tens of billions of rupiah in foreign currency denominations. PPATK suspects that this money came from accepting bribes.

From these findings, the KPK confirmed that it would follow up. Moreover, the anti-corruption commission was involved when PPATK blocked Rafael's safe deposit box.

"KPK will follow up according to its authority," said KPK Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron to reporters, Saturday, March 11.
