TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Central Jakarta District Attorney's Office delivered to the state treasury the confiscation of Rp51.1 billion from the case of forgery of documents and bank BCA money laundering by convict Leo Chandra.
"This deposit to the state treasury is an act of recovering state losses. The confiscated money of Rp51.1 billion that was handed over today is proof that the Attorney General's Office as a law enforcement agency always tries to protect the interests of the state and society," Central Jakarta District Attorney chief Hari Wibowo said in an official statement received in Jakarta, Thursday, March 16.
The District Attorney's Office hopes that deposit can increase public awareness not to commit money laundering crimes.
Hari said that the deposit was executed based on the Supreme Court's No.1004 K/PID/2022, which ruled the defendant Leo Chandra proven legally and convincingly guilty to have committed the joint-crime of forgery of letters continuously, and the crime of money laundering against Bank BCA.
Leo Chandra was sentenced to one year in prison and a fine of Rp1 billion. The Central Jakarta Prosecutor's Office also determined that evidence in the form of cash amounting to Rp51.1 billion was confiscated for the state.
Leo Chandra as commissioner of PT SNP applied for a working capital loan facility to Bank BCA from 2016-2017. The proposed working capital credit ceiling was Rp600 billion, followed by a guaranteed list of Columbia consumer financing receivables (PT SNP's trading business).
In 2018, there were bad loans of Rp209.8 billion. There were also financing records that were fictitious, thus could not be collected. He was also unable to show the financing contract documents used as collateral.
As a result of the defendant's actions, Bank BCA suffered a loss of Rp209.8 billion. During his trial, the defendant was proven guilty based on Article 263 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code and Article 3 in conjunction with Article 10 of Law No. 8/2010 on Money Laundering Crime.
