According to him, the ability of corruptors to manipulate the flow of funds will be offset by the investigation capabilities of KPK investigators. In fact, the KPK has found a formula to overcome the corruption case of the e-KTP project.

The defendant Setya Novanto was allegedly played a role in passing the budget of the e-KTP project in the DPR in 2010 when he served as Chairman of Golkar Party Faction. Setya Novanto was charged with violating Articles 2 and 3 Law Number 31 on Corruption Criminal Act.

In the continued trial of the defendant Setya Novanto on Monday, January 15, the Prosecutor General of KPK presented several money changer entrepreneurs. Prosecutor Irene Putri said they were presented to know ‘the bridge’ to channel fee to Setya Novanto.

"What we proved to be is the sale of payment, receiving the transfer from Biomorf Mauritius, and then transferring to the alleged parties before in the case of e-KTP corruption," said Irene.

According to Irene, the parties that channel funds to Setya Novanto, both Irvanto Pambudi Cahyo and PT Biomorf Mauritius, do layering (move or change the form of funds through complex financial transactions) to make it difficult to track the origin of funds. Irvanto is Setya Novanto's nephew.

They choose to use money changer rather than banking. "The layering is done by Biomorf and Irvanto," she said.

Moni explains, a client named Deni Wibowo, money changer businessman King Currency, buy dollars from her. The dollar is requested to be sent to OEM Investment. "Money changer (King Currency) ask for help, so I send it to OEM Investment."

In the previous trial, prosecutors also presented witnesses from businessmen money changer. One of them, Rizwan, who claimed to be dealing with Setya's niece, Irvanto Pambudi Cahyo. Rizwan said Irvanto had used his money changer services to barter the dollar.

"He (Irvanto) said there are dollars abroad, he only wants to receive dollars in Jakarta, so the barter is done," said Rizwan on Thursday, January 12, 2018.

Rizwan and other money changer businessmen, Yuli, facilitated US$2.6 million dollar barter from Irvanto. Young Witness Ikhsan Harahap also said that he lent his account in Singapore to facilitate the transfer from Made Oka Masagung.

In the indictment, Setya Novanto explained, to obscure the flow of funds Johannes Marliem and Anang Sugiana Sudihardjo send money to Setya Novanto using several account numbers and money changer company, domestically and abroad.

Recorded in the KPK Prosecutor's indictment, the total funds received by Setya Novanto from Made Oka Masagung amounted to US$3.8 million, respectively through the OCBC Center Branch account on behalf of OEM Investment, Pte. Ltd. amounted to the US$1.8 million and Delta Energy Pte. Ltd. in Singapore DBS Bank is US$2 million.
