JAKARTA, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- Indonesian police have uncovered a massive bank fraud worth 204 billion rupiah (12.14 million U.S. dollars) involving dormant accounts at a Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) branch in West Java.
Brigadier General Helfi Assegaf, director of special economic crimes at the National Police Criminal Investigation Agency, said Thursday that the syndicate carried out the operation in June 2025.
"The syndicate transferred 204 billion rupiah into five accounts through 42 transactions in just 17 minutes, with the operation executed after banking hours to avoid detection," he said.
Police have so far named nine suspects, including bank employees, syndicate members, and money-laundering operatives.
Investigations are ongoing to trace the wider criminal network and recover additional assets tied to the illegal scheme. Enditem
