In his explanation, the Kabid Humas of Polda Metro Jaya, Kombes Pol Ade Ary Syam Indradi said, apart from arresting new suspects so that there are now 4 suspects, the Ranmor Sub-Directorate Opsnal Team is also hunting for 2 other suspects.
“The two perpetrators who are still being hunted are a man with the initials U as the owner of a public accounting firm and a man with the initials I as a printing machine operator,” said Kombes Pol Ade Ary, Wednesday, (19/6).
For the 4 suspects who have been arrested, namely M, YA, FF and F and have been locked up in the Polda Metro Jaya Detention Center, Kombes Pol Ade Ary said that all of them are subject to Article 244 of the Criminal Code and Article 245 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 55 and Article 56 of the Criminal Code.
Apart from eliminating the 4 suspects, Ranmor investigators also succeeded in tracking down the location where the counterfeit money was made in the Sukaraja area, Sukabumi, West Java. All the fake money was printed in a villa there.
“All items related to counterfeiting have been taken there. There are money cutting tools and money counting tools as well as colorful ink. Investigators are also on the way in Sukabumi to confiscate the counterfeit money making machine,” said Kombes Pol Ade Ary again.
He continued, thankfully all the fake money had not been circulated to the public. Ranmor investigators are also still continuing to make developments to solve this case. (Bembo)
