The police arrested the fraudster who stole hundreds of millions of rupiah belonging to hundreds of students of SMAN 21 Bandung who were promised to travel to the Special Region (DI) of Yogyakarta.

Bandung Police Chief Kombes Pol. Budi Sartono said the suspect with the initials ICL had the status of a tour leader for a travel service company with the initials GTI. As a result of his actions, hundreds of students from SMAN 21 Bandung became victims.

"The perpetrator was arrested in the Cilengkrang area. The perpetrator was freelance by the GTI company," said Budi at the Bandung Police Station, West Java (West Java), Thursday, May 25, which was confiscated by Antara.

According to him, the police received a report on the alleged fraud on Wednesday, May 24. Then, less than 24 hours the perpetrators have been arrested by the Buahbatu Police.

Currently, according to him, the perpetrator is undergoing investigation to find out the motive for the fraud or embezzlement case which allegedly caused a loss of around Rp. 400 million.

"Later we will trace the money anywhere, what motive is that the person concerned embezzled the money," he said.

Budi said, based on the initial ICL examination so far, he admitted that he had taken the hundreds of millions of rupiah for personal gain.

The next step, he said, was that the police would examine a number of witnesses, including the principal (kepsek) of SMAN 21 Bandung to GTI.

"The travel party has been examined and stated that the money was not deposited," he said.

As a result of this case, ICL was charged with Article 372 and Article 378 of the Criminal Code with a penalty of more than five years in prison.
