NTB - The search for leakage amounting to IDR 10 billion of NTB Syariah Regional Development Bank (BPD) continues.

Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation (Dirreskrimsus) West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Regional Police, I Gusti Putu Gede Ekawana said that if the leak of funds sourced from the regional budget (APBD) then the handling could lead to alleged corruption.

Conversely, if it comes from the company's money or the customer's property then the direction of handling can be taken to criminal banking.

"But of course, we will direct it, we will investigate the result first", explained Ekawana reported from Antara, Tuesday, April 13.

The emergence of the alleged leak of funds worth IDR 10 billion was revealed after BPD NTB Syariah carried out employee mutations, including those in crucial positions.

From the rejuvenation, then came the name of a former provider with the initials PS. He was accused as a leaker. The allegations also led to PS when entering as one of the employees affected by the mutation.

In order for the case to be quickly dismantled, investigators have cooperated with the company's Internal Auditor or Internal Monitoring Unit (SPI). Cash funds have allegedly been leaked since 2012.

"So cooperating with the internal auditor is like coordination. We want to see what the annual audit data looks like", said Ekawana.

In addition, it also hopes that coordination with internal auditors can be part of determining the direction of handling alleged cases arising from the report of the Director of BPD NTB Syariah.

"So whether the leaked cash funds are sourced from APBD funds or indeed the company's money or customers'", he said.
