The theft of funds belonging to PT elnusa and the Batu Bara regency administration is suspected to be the work of a bank crime syndicate led by Richard Latief. Besides accomplices at the Jababeka branch of Bank Mega, Richard’s network extends to a number of investment companies, serving as receptacles for major underhanded funds. Jababeka Bank Mega is also suspected of money laundering. Bank Indonesia has found indications of lack of oversight allowing for such activities. Who are the members of Richard’s ring? And why is Bank Indonesia caught off-guard again?
