However, Andi did not explain in detail the reasons for the involvement of other parties in the case, including Densus 88 Anti-terror. He only said that all elements of the crime would be explored in the case.

In fact, when he was asked regarding the involvement of Densus 88 Anti-terror to look for the alleged flow of funds from dozens of accounts to the terrorism network, Andi was reluctant to answer firmly.

"All possibilities will be investigated", he said.

As reported previously, Police Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim) would follow up on the results of the analysis of the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) regarding 92 accounts belonging to the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) or related parties.
