JAKARTA - The name Madura United is now making national news. This cannot be separated from the case of the Viral Blast trading robot, which is now ensnaring a high-ranking PT Trust Global Karya official, Zainal Hudha Purnama.

It was reported in several media that the manager of Madura United had been summoned by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Police to undergo an investigation regarding the flow of funds in the fraudulent investment case of Viral Blast. The police are investigating the alleged flow of funds from Viral Blast used for sponsorship cooperation.

"Investigators plan to investigate the Madura United football club regarding the role of one of the suspects, Zainal Hudha Purnama," said Director of Special Economic Crimes at the National Police Criminal Investigation Department Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan, to reporters.

Previously, Madura United officials had indeed collaborated with Viral Blast Global. In fact, Zainal Hudha has been the club manager as of January 2022.

However, at the beginning of March 2022, the management of Madura United decided to stop working with Viral Blast Global. This decision was taken after the company experienced legal problems.

Director of PT PMBM, the company that oversees Madura United, Ziaul Haq, has confirmed the collaboration with Viral Blast Global. The club from Pamekasan received sponsorship funds of IDR 1.8 billion for one season.

"It was Brother Yudha who directly contacted Madura United and offered the sponsorship. This also happened to other clubs," said Ziaul Haq, in a written statement received by the media, on March 1.

Ziaul Haq emphasized that the funds received by Madura United were only limited to sponsorship funds. "There are no other funds," he said.

This case clearly tarnishes the progress of Madura United in the Indonesian League 1 2021/2022. Moreover, the club nicknamed Laskar Sape Kerrab was named Team Fair Play from the league operator.

Until this news was written, VOI's efforts to confirm to one of Madura United's top officials regarding the summons from the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police had not received a response.
