The Attorney General's Office of the Republic of Indonesia recently seized more than Rp301 billion in cash related to a corruption case in a money laundering (TPPU) case at PT Duta Palma Korporasi. This case involves a palm oil plantation company operating in Indragiri Hulu, with alleged transfer of funds through PT Darmex Plantations.
According to the Director of Investigation of the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus), Abdul Qohar, the cash is believed to have been diverted and disguised through the Darmex foundation which is closely linked to the PT Duta Palma network. Abdul Qohar emphasized that this confiscation is a firm step by the Attorney General's Office in exposing a corruption scheme involving a number of large companies.
The proceeds of this crime were stored and collected at PT Darmex Plantation, which received funds from five subsidiaries of the Duta Palma Group. These companies include PT Palma Satu, PT Siberida Subur, PT Banyu Bening Utama, PT Panca Agro Lestari, and PT Kencana Amal Tani. Each of these companies is suspected of playing a role in diverting and disguising funds obtained from the results of the palm oil plantation business.
Interestingly, some netizens gave hilarious responses regarding the appearance of the confiscated money, comparing it to a very soft mattress or bed. They were impressed by the extraordinary amount of money, even considering it could be used as a comfortable bed .
"You can sleep soundly there but it's hot," commented the account @ajeng.aipermata.
"I can now make a mattress from dirty money," wrote @melisyaniaa.
"Spring beds are not as soft as this money mattress," commented @chandra.a.salim.
Furthermore, here is the appearance of the pile of IDR 301 billion, which brilio.net has summarized from the Indonesian Attorney General's Office YouTube channel, Wednesday (13/11).
