The Head of Public Relations of the Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Yusri Yunus said that his party needed 1x24 hours to determine their legal status. Therefore, the first inspection must be done.

"We are still investigating the person concerned, later we will wait for the results because the results are 24 hours," Yusri told reporters, Tuesday, July 27.

Examination of both to determine and ensure the fulfillment of the elements of the crime committed. If later fulfilled, then, both will be immediately arrested.

In addition, the examination of the two is also to find out when the mode was carried out as well as to record the number of victims. Currently there are 9 people who have become victims of Satpol PP recruitment fraud.

"We are waiting now, we are still investigating how many victims he tricked, we will wait," said Yusri.

Meanwhile, according to the DKI Satpol PP, the two perpetrators have committed fraud. Because, the two of them had deceived nine people with the initials FP (31), RM (34), BA (23), RY (43), SA (18), S (39), IR (22), AT (36) and JK ( 33).

Head of DKI Satpol PP Arifin explained that this problem started with the perpetrator with the initials YF who offered Satpol PP jobs to nine victims. The condition is that they have to pay a certain amount of money.

The fraudulent act of recruiting Satpol PP officers by YF was not carried out alone. He works closely with his aunt, BA. Neither of them are employees of the DKI Provincial Government.

YF pegged money to victims with varying amounts. Some have to pay Rp 7 million, Rp 15 million, even Rp 25 million. After the victims deposited the money, YF and BA made a decree (SK) for the appointment of other service provider employees (PJLP) for the fake Satpol PP.

“The victims were given Satpol uniforms, some even bought their own. In the fake appointment decree there is also a barcode, when we checked the barcode it was empty, aka nothing," said Arifin.

After receiving information from the victims, it turned out that the nine people had already done their job, on YF's orders. They worked as health protocol supervisors during the PPKM period. "They were then given certain tasks since May 2021 by YF elements," said Arifin.

However, there are victims who feel that their job as Satpol PP is odd. They don't know where his office is. They just got an assignment and went home to the field and patrolled using their respective vehicles.

The victim claimed to receive a salary directly from YF. However, unfortunately the salary received is not appropriate. They were promised a salary of Rp. 4 million according to the UMP, but what they got was only Rp. 3.5 million, Rp. 2.5 million, and some even received a salary of only Rp. 900 thousand.

Based on preliminary investigations, YF admitted that he had received hundreds of millions of rupiah from his fraudulent actions. This is because he does not only fake recruitment for Satpol PP officers.

He opened vacancies for the Department of Transportation, the Department of Spatial Planning and Land (Citata) and the Department of Investment and One Stop Services (DPMPTSP).

The perpetrator of YF admitted that he used some of the money from the fraud to pay the victims. In addition, the fraudulent money was used for daily needs and buying a number of necessities such as an iPhone 12 and a new motorcycle.

After the investigation report (BAP) was made, the two perpetrators and nine victims were then taken to the Metro Jaya Police for further investigation. As a result of his actions, the perpetrator is threatened with being subject to Article 378 of the Criminal Code regarding fraud with a prison sentence of more than five years.

"We will delegate all of these events to the police for investigation, investigation, of violations of the law that have been carried out. Both those related to the Satpol PP institution such as the use of attributes, falsification of documents, using my identity, including (fraud cases) to victims," he explained. Arifin.
