Headline: UIN Makassar Counterfeit Money Case: Police Struggle to Control Spread, 19 Suspects Named

Subheadline: Police admit difficulty in controlling the circulation of near-perfect counterfeit money created at UIN Alauddin Makassar’s campus.

Article:

Makassar, CNN Indonesia — The Chief of the South Sulawesi Regional Police, Irjen Pol Yudhiawan Wibisono, has admitted that counterfeit money created at the campus of the Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Makassar is proving difficult to control. The counterfeit currency, which closely resembles genuine notes, has started circulating in society.

"We’ve lost control of the money circulating now," Yudhiawan said on Monday (30/12).

Yudhiawan warned that those who receive the counterfeit money stand to lose out, as it cannot be exchanged for genuine currency. "If found in the field, it can’t be exchanged because it’s counterfeit," he added.

The police chief revealed that the counterfeit money, designed by UIN Alauddin Makassar students, is nearly indistinguishable from real currency. "It’s almost perfect, and when we use ultraviolet light, it shows signs of forgery," he explained.

However, the counterfeit notes can fool members of the public who are not trained in spotting them. "To the average person, it seems like real money, but it’s actually counterfeit," Yudhiawan said.

A total of 19 suspects have been named in the case involving the counterfeit money factory at UIN Alauddin Makassar. Two more are listed as ‘Wanted’ (DPO). The main suspect is a prominent businessman and politician with the initials ASS.

After 12 hours of interrogation at the Gowa District Police, ASS was officially named a suspect and later transferred to the Bhayangkara Hospital in Makassar due to health concerns, including a history of heart and prostate issues.

In a significant move, Indonesia‘s National Police Chief, General Listyo Sigit Prabowo, has implemented a large-scale rotation and transfer of 734 high-ranking officers, ranging from Upper Echelon (Pati) to Middle Tier (Pamen). The decision, outlined in Police Chief Telegram Number ST/2775/XII/KEP./2024 to ST/2778/XII/KEP./2024, dated December 29, 2024, was confirmed by Police Public Relations Head, Brigadier General Trunoyudo Wisnu Andiko.

"This rotation is a natural process in any organization to enhance performance and expand duty assignments," Andiko stated briefly on Monday (30/12).

One of the prominent figures affected by this move is Brigadier General Gatot Tri Suryanta, who has been appointed as the new Chief of Police in West Sumatra. Gatot will replace Irjen Suharyono, who is set to retire.

In Gatot’s previous role as Head of the SUBBANTAS Division in the National Police (Itwasum Polri), he will be succeeded by Commissioner General Budi Wasono, who currently serves as the Chief of Police Operations in West Java.

Additionally, the Police Chief announced the transfer of Yan Sultra, the former Head of the National Narcotics Agency (BNN), to a non-structural assignment at the Ministry of Immigration and Manpower.

The vacant position at the BNN will be filled by Irjen Merdisyam, who previously served as the Deputy Chief of the National Police Criminal Investigation Bureau (Baintelkam). Merdisyam’s former position will be taken by Irjen Yuda Gustawan.

General Prabowo also rotated the Chief of the National Police’s Information Center, Brigjen Yusri Yunus, who will retire. His replacement will be Brigjen Widodo, formerly the Deputy Chief of Police in West Java.

The position left by Widodo in West Java will be taken by Brigjen Kasihan Rahmadi, who previously served as the Deputy Chief of Police in Riau.

Meanwhile, the Deputy Chief of Police in Riau will be filled by Brigjen Adrianto Jossy Kusumo, the current Director of Operations at the Anti-Terrorism Special Operations Unit (Densus 88).

In the Pamen ranks, the Police Chief transferred Kombes Donald P Simanjuntak, the former Director of the Metropolitan Police Criminal Investigation Division. Donald’s transfer comes amidst the Professionalism and Standardization Police (Propam) investigation into allegations of extortion involving Malaysian DWP spectators.

Donald has been reassigned as a Senior Analyst at the National Police Information and Communication Bureau (Binmas Baharkam).

His former position will be assumed by Kombes Ahmad David, who previously served as a Senior Crime Investigator at the Criminal Investigation Unit at the National Police Headquarters (Bareskrim Polri).

Other transfers include Pembangunan Istimewa’s (Korpribad) Kombes Irwan Anwar, who will be replaced by Kombes M Syahduddi, previously the Metro Jakarta Barat Police Chief.

Man’s Alleged Rape Case Exposed: Wife Reveals Police Coercion, Husband’s Revenge

Subhead:
Couple’s Rape Allegation Unravels as Wife Claims Police Coercion and Husband’s Revenge Motive

Article:

In a shocking turn of events, a woman named Arimbi has publicly refuted her former husband, Yudi, over allegations of rape and abuse that have haunted their family for years. Yudi had recently testified before the House of Representatives’ (DPR) Commission III, claiming that his wife and child were victims of a rape case since 2017, with the investigation seemingly stalled.

The Initial Allegation

Yudi, a resident of Solo, Java, took his grievances to the DPR, where he shared that his wife and child had been victims of a rape case. The alleged perpetrator was a college student who was living with them. Despite the case being reported six years ago, Yudi claimed that no justice had been served.

During the hearing, Yudi revealed that he was once detained by the police without clear reasons. He also alleged that he was forced to sign a statement without being allowed to read its contents. Yudi broke down in tears as he recounted his experiences.

Arimbi’s Rebuttal

Arimbi, however, has a different version of events. In a video clarification, she categorically denied the rape allegations, stating that the entire incident was a fabrication by her former husband. She claimed that she was forced to make a false report and admit to being raped.

Arimbi revealed that her former husband had been exploiting their child, pressuring him to claim that he was a victim of sodomy. She also admitted to making a false report in 2017, stating that she did so out of fear for her safety.

The Revenge Motive

Arimbi shed light on the true motive behind Yudi’s actions. She alleged that Yudi was driven by jealousy and revenge against another man, D. She claimed that Yudi had orchestrated the entire incident to frame D and seek revenge.

Arimbi’s Retraction

In a surprising turn of events, Arimbi revealed that she had retracted her initial report in 2017. She stated that she did so of her own volition, without any coercion or intimidation.

Arimbi’s Wish

Arimbi expressed her desire to meet her child, whom she has not seen for seven years. She also hopes that her clarification can reach the Commission III of the DPR, helping to resolve the confusion surrounding the case.

The House of Representatives’ Commission III, led by Habiburokhman, has called for a thorough investigation into the matter. They have urged the Central Java Police Chief and the Solo Police Chief to take swift action and ensure that the case is handled fairly and transparently.

Gowa Police Conclude Investigation, Designate Annar Salahuddin Sampetoding as Suspect in Fake Money Syndicate Case

The Gowa Police have completed their investigation into the involvement of local businessman Annar Salahuddin Sampetoding, alias ASS, in a counterfeit money syndicate operating at UIN Alauddin Makassar, South Sulawesi. The police have designated Annar as a suspect in the case.

"His status is now a suspect," confirmed Gowa Police Chief AKBP Reonald T.S Simanjuntak to journalists on Saturday, December 28, 2024. The police formalized Annar’s status as a suspect earlier today, although AKBP Reonald did not provide details on Annar’s role within the fake money syndicate.

The investigation of Annar Salahuddin Sampetoding spanned over 24 hours before he was officially designated as a suspect. "It’s already been more than 24 hours (since his questioning)," AKBP Reonald confirmed.

AKBP Reonald further disclosed that the details of the case and Annar’s involvement will be officially announced by South Sulawesi Police Chief Irjen Yudhiawan Wibisono on Monday, December 30.

"Kapolda will release an official statement on Monday," AKBP Reonald said.

Earlier reports indicate that Annar Sampetoding had responded to Gowa Police’s summons on Thursday, December 26, and was questioned until 4:00 AM the following morning. Annar had initially skipped a previously scheduled summon on Monday, December 23, leading to another police notice being sent to him.

Indonesia’s Ministry of Transportation to Launch Cibinong-Puncak Bus Route in February 2025

Bogor‘s Puncak to See New Bus Services by 2025

Jakarta, CNN Indonesia — The Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) is gearing up to launch public bus services on the Cibinong-Puncak route in Bogor Regency, West Java. These services are expected to commence operations by February 2025.

According to Deputy Minister of Transportation Suntana, the new bus route aims to provide an alternative mode of transportation for residents and tourists heading to the Puncak area. "This will ensure they don’t have to rely on motorcycles and other vehicles," he said, as reported by Antara on Wednesday, December 25.

The program is government-subsidized and aims to introduce around 15-20 bus units serving the Cibinong to Puncak route and vice versa. Suntana explained that the subsidy aims to keep ticket prices affordable. "Residents can park their motorcycles in Karadenan or other designated areas and then take the bus at a very low cost," he said.

The new bus service is not only expected to provide convenience but also help alleviate traffic congestion and reduce road accidents on the popular Puncak tourist route. Suntana acknowledged that traffic congestion in the area remains a challenge, and the one-way system is being considered as a short-term solution. However, the ministry is also working with the Ministry of Public Works to develop long-term infrastructure solutions, such as the Cikampek Toll Road and the extension of the Puncak II route.

This initiative is part of Kemenhub’s ongoing efforts to improve transportation infrastructure and services in the region.

**Breaking News: UIN Makassar U ]);

University’s Campus Unveils Trillion-Rupiah Fake Currency Operation**

In a significant bust, the Indonesian National Police (Polisi) have uncovered a massive operation producing counterfeit banknotes, taking place within the campus of the coveted Islamic University of Indonesia (UIN) Alauddin Makassar in Gowa, South Sulawesi. The case has resulted in the arrests of 17 individuals, including the university’s library head, and the seizure of substantial amounts of fake currency and foreign exchange.

A windfall of fake money

In a press conference, South Sulawesi Police Chief, Irjen Pol Yudhiawan Wibisono, revealed the seized goods: "We’ve seized fake currency worth trillions. There were 4,554 pieces of 100,000-rupiah notes from 2016 series, 6 pieces of 100,000-rupiah notes from the 99 series, and 234 uncut pieces worth 100,000 rupiah."

The police also confiscated foreign currency, including South Korean Won and Vietnamese Dong. Notably, they seized a high-quality color photocopy of a Bank Indonesia (BI) deposit certificate worth 45 trillion rupiah and a state bonds (SBN) paper worth 700 trillion rupiah.

From photocopy to trillions

The operation’s scope also included a state-of-the-art printer, purchased in Surabaya but manufactured in China, worth 600 million rupiah. The police seized 98 items in total, including inks and magnifying glasses used in the counterfeiting process.

The operation unfolded after a local resident was given fake money and reported it to the police. The investigation led police to a ring involving 17 individuals with different roles, including two employees of a state-owned bank.

A tale of two currencies

The operation worked on a "one real, two fake" exchange rate. Transactions involved exchanging real money for twice the amount in fake currency. Police have interrogated six witnesses and expect to file charges soon.

In line with CNN Indonesia’s tagging policy, this article should be tagged with ‘polisi’ (police) and ‘uang palsu’ (counterfeit money).

Stay informed, stay safe. This is a developing story, check back for updates.
