The Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police also blocked 17 accounts related to money laundering (TPPU) online gambling syndicates. Of the dozens of accounts, the transaction value was recorded at Rp72.3 billion.
"Investigators have also blocked 17 renings suspected of carrying out transactions resulting from online gambling in the 2020 to 2022 period with a total of Rp72,335,550,082.24," said the Director of Special Economic Crimes at Bareskrim Polri Brigadier General Helfi Assegaf, Monday, January 6.
The disclosure of the TPPU online gambling syndicate is said to be the result of the cooperation between the Police and other relevant institutions and institutions. Because, in accordance with President Prabowo Subianto's direction, all state apparatus must work hand in hand to eradicate online gambling practices.
"The success of disclosing this case is certainly inseparable from the help of our colleagues, our partners, from the Attorney General's Office, PPATK, OJK, Komdigi and the Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs," he said.
In addition to dozens of accounts, Bareskrim also confiscated the Arus Hotel which is located in the Semarang area, Central Java. This is because the luxury lodging is strongly suspected to be the result of money laundering offenses.
This allegation is because PT AJP as the hotel manager received funds from several parties sourced from online gambling results.
"The one managed by PT AJP comes from funds transferred from FH accounts through the first 5 accounts, one account from OR, RF, MG, and two accounts from KV," he said.
"As well as the results of cash withdrawals and cash deposits made by GP and AS. With a total value of IDR 40,560,000.000 (IDR 40.5 billion)," continued Helfi.
The tens of billions of money was from the dealer of several online gambling sites. So, on this basis, the Arus Hotel was confiscated.
"The contracts are allegedly managed by dealers related to online gambling platforms, including dafabet, agent 138, and soccer gambling," said Helfi.
