JAKARTA - Polda Metro Jaya arrested a husband and wife for committing fraud with a fictitious project mode of IDR 39.5 billion.
Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Yusri Yunus said the two suspects had the initials DK alias DW and his wife, KA. They are committing fraud since 2019.
"Since January 2019, several projects were promised to the victims, but all of them are fictitious projects that have not run until now," Yusri told reporters, Wednesday, January 27.
This couple made 6 offers for various partnerships. Apart from that, the husband and wife, to convince the victim, admitted that they had a relationship with a high-ranking police officer.
At the start of the fraud, the suspect seduced the victim for land amounting to Rp. 24 billion. Several months later, the victim was again persuaded to invest in NFO in Cilegon amounting to IDR 4.5 billion and IDR 3 billion.
Furthermore, the suspect also persuaded the victim to invest in the coal sector of IDR 5.8 billion. Finally, the victim was asked to invest in parking for Rp. 117 million and land in Depok for Rp. 2.2 billion.
To expedite the action and be more convincing, this male suspect changed his identity.
"The method was that he introduced himself to the victim and conveyed the former son-in-law of the National Police so that by convincing him to the victim he began to play and offer projects," said Yusri.
"(The suspect) DK changed his KTP. His real name is DK, his fake name is DW," he continued.
In this case, the two suspects were charged with layered articles, including Article 378 of the Criminal Code concerning fraud, Article 263 of the Criminal Code concerning letter forgery, and Articles 5 and 4 of the TPPU Law with the threat of a sentence of up to 5 years in prison.
