Hotman on Winda’s Maybank Severance: Are You Santa Claus? All pages

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – PT Maybank Indonesia’s attorney, Hotman Paris, gave the reason why his client chose to wait for the investigation to be completed rather than immediately pay billions of rupees in losses in the event of the disappearance of the savings of Winda Lunardi, aka Winda Earl.

According to Hotman, there are several irregularities in this case. He stressed that Maybank Indonesia was willing to pay the money that the Maybank Cipulir branch manager misused if the results of the investigation supported Winda’s claim.

“If you own a bank or cooperative (savings and loans), try to imagine if you have a client who claims that their account has been compromised. But then there is evidence that large amounts of money have flowed to family members. “Hotman said as seen from his Instagram account page on Sunday. (11/15/2020).

“Even the flowers also flow into family members and other oddities,” he said again.

Hotman said any bank’s management will generally conduct an inspection first, including law enforcement involvement, before deciding whether the bank will bear the losses of its customers.

“(With some oddities) how should you behave as a bank owner? Are you Santa Claus. Do you pay 100 percent immediately? This is the real world. Therefore, there must be a legal investigation,” explained Hotman Paris .

Delivered by his client, Hotman continued, Maybank was willing to pay for losses after the investigation process was completed and the facts supported Winda’s claim. If Maybank paid for the losses before the investigation was completed, that too would set a bad precedent.

“My client in good faith to invite (Winda Earl). Okay, we pay for money that is not clear (called by Kacab),” Hotman said conveying Maybank Indonesia’s position.

Hotman, who has experience handling various legal disputes in banking cases, assesses that the irregularities in the Winda Earl disappearance case should be exposed first.

Some irregularities, such as purchasing an insurance policy at Prudential, transferring funds from the perpetrator’s personal account to the victim’s father, the bank interest paid by the perpetrator, to the victim who claimed not to have a passbook and ATM card.

Meanwhile, the Financial Services Authority (OJK) assesses that the savings requested by Winda will return if the client is proven innocent and the flaw is in Maybank Indonesia’s security system. This can only be proven in court.

“If the client is innocent, the money will be returned. Maybank has informed it, the client has informed it,” explained the chairman of the OJK Board of Commissioners, Wimboh Santoso, in his statement.

Maybank Indonesia, as a major bank in Indonesia, will not risk its reputation if it does not have supporting evidence.

“Maybank must have something, it is only being handled by the law, so it is very careful when making statements to the public,” Wimboh said.

Wimboh continued, the financial authority chose to be careful in this case and preferred to prioritize the results of the police investigation.

“Please wait, it is not good to get ahead of law enforcement because Maybank itself has reported it, and the client has already reported it. There is something, but we are sure it will be objective and transparent,” Wimboh said.
