Long Investigation Of Polda Metro To Handle Cases Of Bank DKI ATM Burglary

Metro Jaya Police Headquarters (Syamsul Ma'arif / VOI)

JAKARTA - Profit and loss is a natural thing in the banking world. However, if the losses reach a fantastic and unreasonable figure, it is not wrong to suspect that there are indications of a criminal act.

This problem is reflected in the burglary case of DKI bank ATM funds which reached Rp32 billion. The perpetrator was said to be a member of the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP), totaling 12 people.

Although the number of ATM burglars has been identified, until now there has been no information explaining the chronology and mode of the offense. Only, there is a statement if the burglary was carried out from May to August 2019.

In fact, when the case had appeared to the public, it was said that the case was in the investigation stage by Polda Metro Jaya.

"Dirkrimsus is still at the stage of investigative steps," said the Head of Metro Jaya Police Inspector General Gatot Eddy Pramono in Jakarta, Thursday, November 21.

The latest developments in the case are said to have examined several witnesses. However, it was not stated how many people had been questioned. In fact, the follow-up to the case still cannot be described in detail.

"Asking witnesses for information whether we will raise it to investigation later or not, wait for the time," said Gatot.

On a different occasion, Head of the Control Division of the DKI Jakarta Regional Personnel Agency (BKD) Wahyono said that of the dozens of people from West, South, and East Jakarta Satpol PP, ten of them had been dismissed since Wednesday, November 19.

Meanwhile, the other two are still waiting for a decision from the police investigation. Where, if later found guilty, strict sanctions will be immediately given.

"If it has been declared a suspect, we will temporarily stop. If we deal with the law, we will see, if there is an incraht decision, then there is a decision whether we will stop or not," said Wahyono.

Meanwhile, Chairman of the PDI-Perjuangan faction in the DPRD, Gembong Warsono, said that this problem occurred because the security system of Bank DKI was still weak. Moreover, the theft of money at DKI ATMs has occurred since four months ago.

Moreover, the nominal money withdrawn reached billions of rupiah. Apart from that, the unscrupulous Satpol PP members did not only withdraw from the DKI bank ATM machine once.

"The system is not right. It is true (insufficient security)," said Gembong when confirmed, Tuesday, November 19.

With this case, Gembong advised DKI Bank to immediately improve the security system. If it is allowed to continue, it will have an impact on the number of customers because they do not trust the security system they have.

The faction will also encourage their members in Commission B DPRD DKI Jakarta to summon the President Director of Bank DKI. With the aim of seeking information regarding the responsibility for assets owned by residents of DKI. Because according to him, Bank DKI is an asset for the citizens of the Capital City.

"Yes, the PDIP faction asked my friends in Commission B to summon the Managing Director of BANK DKI to ask him to be accountable. Until the assets of the Provincial Government can be taken by DKI employees, this is extraordinary," said Gembong.

It should be noted, there are 12 Satpol PP members involved in burglary using Bank DKI debit cards. They made a withdrawal at ATM Bersama deliberately blaming the ATM pin on the first try and the correct pin on the second try. As a result, the money went out but the balance in the accounts of the 12 Satpol PP members did not decrease.
