BOGOR - The Village Secretary (Sekdes) in Cipinang Village, Rumpin, Bogor Regency, West Java, became a police fugitive for withdrawing deposits from social assistance funds (bansos) for residents affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The Village Secretary is not in the place while the suspect is still under investigation, he is included in the DPO (wanted list)," said Bogor Police Chief AKBP Harun as quoted by Antara, Tuesday, February 16.

According to him, the Cipinang Village Secretary named Endang Suhendar withdrew the deposit from his staff with the initials LH (32) who was also a suspect because he manipulated 30 data on social assistance recipients.

Harun said that LH, who served as the Head of Service in Cipinang Village, manipulated 30 social assistance recipient data, so that they made Rp. 54 million or Rp1.8 million from every single social assistance recipient account.

"The government provides assistance every month Rp. 600 thousand, multiplied by three to become Rp1, 8 million per person," said Harun.

Harun said, LH carried out the action with the help of 15 residents, each of whom were equipped with two social assistance recipient accounts to make disbursements at the Cicangkal Post Office, Rumpin, Bogor.

Then, as many as 15 residents who disbursed aid funds with barcode paper containing the local residents' Identity Number (NIK) each paid by the LH worth Rp.

"While these 15 people are still witnesses, we are still investigating. If the evidence is sufficient, we will suspect it," said Harun.
