Often hidden in the ocean, 11 billion rupee fraud fugitive cases are finally arrested

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – Ditreskrimum Polda Metro Jaya arrested a suspect in a fraud case worth Rp 11 billion who was included in the wanted list (DPO) with the initials AW.

The suspect of notarial deed fraud was arrested at his hideout in the Cikeusik, Pandeglang, Banten area on Friday (1/1/2021).

“DPO AW was arrested at his hideout in Cikeusik Pandeglang, Banten,” the head of the Harda Sub-Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya Criminal and Criminal Investigation Directorate, AKBP Dwiasi Wiyatputera, told reporters on Saturday (2/1/2021 ).

The previous author was appointed DPO two months ago. According to police investigations, the assailant often moved from one place to another during his escape.

“During the flight, the OPDs did not use any means of communication. They hid on the (maritime) ship for days under the pretext of fishing,” Dwiasi said.

However, after two months of pursuing the perpetrator, he was finally arrested. Previously, one of his colleagues with the initials AA had already been arrested.

“Because of his (AA) involvement, the arrest has been carried out,” he said.

This case started when AW sold the land assets in Tanjung Pasir and Kohod Villages, Tangerang in October 2016, to someone.

At that time, AW granted a power of attorney to AA until the process of buying and selling land and land was carried out at the notary public.

However, the buying and selling process ends in fraudulent acts, including the falsification of letters or the introduction of false evidence on the spot.
