JAKARTA - The Murung Raya Police Criminal Investigation Unit, Central Kalimantan, arrested the former head of Lakutan village, Laung Tuhup sub-district for allegedly embezzling the Village Fund Budget (ADD) and Village Fund (DD) amounting to IDR 3,220,565,000.

Murung Raya Police Chief (Mura) AKBP I Gede Putu Widyana said the perpetrator suspected of embezzling the 2018 and 2019 Village Revenue and Expenditure Budgets (APBDes) had the initials K.

"The alleged perpetrator with the initials K spent two years in the Lakutan Village APBDes gambling", he told reporters at the Mura Police Headquarters, Puruk Cahu, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, June 15.

Because it was used for gambling, he said, during the two budget years there was no realization of development in the village.

Widyana explained that for the 2018 fiscal year, the Lakutan Village APBDes was worth IDR 1,559,187,000, with details of DD IDR 834,841,000, and Village Fund IDR 717,846,000, and taxes worth IDR 6,500,000.

"As for the 2019 budget, the total APBDes in Lakutan Village is IDR 1,661,378,000, with details of the Village Fund Budget IDR 979,181,000 and ADD IDR 682,197,000", added the Chief of Police accompanied by the Head of Ops, Kompol Indras Purwoko, and Head of Criminal Investigation, Unit AKP Deni Langie.

The APBDes should, he added, be used for activities in the field of village administration, implementation of village development, community development and community empowerment.

However, the APBDes for two years was not used as it should be by the planned use of funds (RPD).

"In fact, many activities are not carried out at all, aka fictitious, even though the funds have been fully disbursed", he said.

He said that based on the results of the audit of the State Audit Board (BPK-RI) Representative of Central Kalimantan, state losses for the 2018 and 2019 fiscal years were found to be IDR 1,666,623,300.

"Based on the results of the examination, the Village Fund Budget (ADD) and Village Fund (DD) of Lakutan Village during the two fiscal years were used for gambling. The suspect with the initials K also did not have valuable assets from his actions", explained the Police Chief.

The suspect with the initials K is threatened with Article 2 paragraph 1 and Article 3 of the Anti-Corruption Law with a maximum of 20 years in prison.
