JAKARTA - Singer Sri Rossa Roslaina Handiyani, also known as Rossa, was said to have handed over a fee of IDR 172 million from DNA Pro to investigators. However, Bareskrim denied that they had never confiscated or received the money.

"Investigators did not confiscate money from Rossa," said the Director of Special Economic Crimes at the National Police Criminal Investigation Agency Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan to VOI, Tuesday, April 26.

In fact, when it was mentioned that Rossa gave the fee money voluntarily to investigators, Whisnu denied it. He said investigators did not receive any money from the singer.

"No, I don't accept it," he insisted.

The reason the confiscation was not carried out was because the money was obtained professionally. This means that there is a singing contract between Rossa and DNA Pro.

"There is a contract as a professional, investigators do not confiscate," said Whisnu.

Previously, Rossa was said to have received a singing fee of IDR 172 million from DNA Pro. Rossa has handed over the money to the Criminal Investigation Police investigator.

The money submitted is designated as evidence of a money laundering crime (TPPU).

"Then the R of the money was handed over to investigators for confiscation," said Head of the Public Relations Division of the National Police Public Relations Division Kombes Gatot Repli Handoko.

Rossa was due to be questioned on Thursday, April 21. During the examination, Rossa explained that she only filled out the DNA Pro event once. At that time, he was singing in Bali around the end of 2021.
