Police Investigate 15 Firearms Found By KPK At Dito Mahendra's House

JAKARTA - The National Police investigated the origins of 15 firearms (senpi) found by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) at Dito Mahendra's residence

Dozens of senpi were found by the KPK while searching Nindy Ayunda's lover's house in the South Jakarta area on Monday, March 13.

"For the 15 firearms that have been handed over by the KPK to the Police, the National Police is currently investigating the origin of the senpi," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan, to reporters, Monday, March 20.

However, when discussed further about the dozens of guns, Ramadhan was reluctant to disclose them, including the matter of his ownership certificate.

Meanwhile, the firearms found were five clock-type pistols, one SNW pistol, one micro game gun, and eight long-barreled firearms.

"Later we will explain, we will not convey it in pieces," said Ramadhan.

For information, the search conducted by the KPK was related to the investigation into the alleged money laundering case (TPPU) that ensnared former Secretary of the Supreme Court (MA) Nurhadi.

In the investigation process, Dito Mahendra was questioned by KPK investigators on Monday, February 6 regarding the alleged money laundering offense carried out by Nurhadi. At that time, he was asked about the buying and selling transactions of luxury cars and the flow of money allegedly came from bribes in handling cases received by Nurhadi.

This allegation of money laundering is actually not Nurhadi's first case at the KPK. He has been sentenced to be found guilty in a bribery and gratification case with his son-in-law, Rezky Herbiyono.

Both of them have now served a sentence at the Sukamiskin Penitentiary (Lapas) for six years.

Not only that, they are required to pay a fine of Rp. 500 million, provided that if they are not paid, they will be replaced with imprisonment for three months.
