The loss of the alleged fraud victim of an Indonesian migrant worker departure company (P3MI) based in Majeluk, Mataram City, West Nusa Tenggara, reached Rp1.9 billion. "So, from the disclosure of a loss of Rp1.9 billion, it was from a record deposit of 132 people," said the Director of General Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimum) of the NTB Police, Kombes Pol Teddy Ristiawan, quoted by ANTARA, Friday, August 11. The number of victims, he explained, came from the recruitment process since 2022. Deposits per person were recorded to be quite varied. The value of Rp30 million to Rp50 million. "Actually, since 2022 it was revealed that a total of 286 people had been recruited. Four of them have been dispatched to Taiwan destination countries," he said. The NTB Police found that the company that has a central office in Jakarta has the legality to send PMI abroad. "Actually, this company is legal. However, because the SIP2MI (Indonesian Migrant Worker Recruitment Permit Letter) owned by the company has been dead, it has been revoked since mid-2022, so many departures have been delayed," he said.

"Are all of them deposited to Jakarta (head office) or partly? This is what we are currently investigating," he said. For the whereabouts of RY who was secured during a search activity last weekend, Teddy said that his party had sent him home.
