There were allegations of involvement of other parties in a series of extortion cases allegedly committed by the former Head of Criminal Investigation Unit of the South Jakarta Metro Police, AKBP Bintoro, some time ago.
Head of Public Relations of Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi said the allegation arose based on the police report number LP/B/612/I/2025/SPKT/Polda Metro Jaya which was made by Arif Nugroho through his attorney to Polda Metro Jaya.
Arif is a extortion victim who is suspected of being carried out by AKBP Bintoro and three other police officers. The report relates to money to take care of the case at the Merto Police Station, South Jakarta.
"The reported sister is EDH. What was the reported incident? Namely around April 2024, the reported party asked the victim to sell his car to take care of the legal case that was being experienced by the victim," Ade told reporters, Wednesday, January 29.
In the buying and selling process, Arif asked that the proceeds from the sale of his luxury car be handed over to him before being used to take care of the case. The value reached Rp3.5 billion. However, the request was not made by the reported EDH. In fact, even that money has not been received by Arif until now.
"However, until now the victim's luxury car sales money has not been given by the reported party, and currently the victim's car has not been returned by the reported party," he said.
For the actions of the reported party, Arif suffered a loss of Rp. 6.5 billion. Currently, continued Ade, the investigative team will investigate the alleged fraud, embezzlement, and/or money laundering (TPPU).
