JAKARTA - The fugitive from the Indonesian Attorney General's Office on behalf of Hendra Subrata alias Endang Rifai has been arrested in Singapore after he applied for a replacement passport because the pages were full.
Citing a broadcast by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, it was stated that while on the run, Hendra Subrata used the pseudonym Endang Rifai to trick the officers.
At that time, Endang Rifai applied for a passport replacement by attaching requirements in the form of an ID card, a Long Term Visit Pass (LTPV) residence permit valid until April 2, 2021, and a doctor's certificate stating that he was a patient at one of the leading hospitals in Singapore.
In the documents he brought, he admitted that his wife, Linawaty Widjaja, had a stroke and was in the Merlion country to accompany her wife's treatment.
On May 28, 2020, it was discovered that the wife of Endang Rifai, Linawaty Widjaja, had previously applied for a passport replacement at the Indonesian Embassy in Singapore.
When the Immigration Attache Officer of the Indonesian Embassy in Singapore conducted research and deepening of Endang Rifai's file, it was found that there was a discrepancy between the data attached by Endang Rifai and the data attached by Linawaty Widjaja.
It is known that the Family Card attached to Linawaty Widjaja states that her husband's name is Hendra Subrata, while Endang Rifai in his application filled out his wife's data on the Perdim 11 form with the name Linawaty Widjaja.
Suspicion grew when officers found the birth name of Endang Rifai, namely Jong Khim Tjiang, which based on the Statement of Change of Name No. 127/I/Kep/12/1966 July 1, 1968. The name was later changed to Hendra Subrata.
The Head of Public Relations and General Affairs at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, Arya Pradhana Anggakara, stated that based on the findings, Endang Rifai was strongly suspected of being the same person as Hendra Subrata.
"The results of the investigation by the Immigration Attache in collaboration with the Indonesian Embassy in Singapore's Police Attache have identified that the two names are the same person," he said as quoted on Sunday, June 27.
Arya added that the passport in the name of Endang Rifai alias Hendra Subrata had been withdrawn and the SPLP was issued for the repatriation of the person concerned to Indonesia.
"Endang Rifai alias Hendra Subrata is scheduled to return to Indonesia on Saturday, June 26, 2021 with a flight from Singapore to Soekarno-Hatta Airport. Furthermore, the person concerned will be handed over to the Attorney General's Office for the execution process," concluded Arya.
