inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim) of the National Police (Polri) has charged cases of investment fraud through the Binomo Application with layers of articles. "In the Binomo case, several articles have been applied to the suspect, including fraudulent acts of fraud and embezzlement. We even assumed that this is something like online gambling," explained the Director of Special Economic Crimes (Dirtipideksus) of the Indonesian National Police (Polri), Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan, Friday (11/3/22). Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan explained that the disclosure of this case was carried out because it caused a lot of harm to the community. According to him, even though it was called a trading investment, the practice was similar to online gambling. "Polri carried out this investigation with great care because the violation that we assumed just like online gambling, has brought harm to the community. The practice of ‘investment’ in Binomo is just like an online football gambling," Dirtipideksus Bareskrim Polri stated. Moreover, The One-Star General confirmed that he would continue to investigate the Binomo case. Polri will coordinate with relevant agencies to uncover who is behind this bogus trade scam. "We are still trying to investigate more deeply how the system is, who is behind the application. We will reveal everything. Of course, we will cooperate with the OJK and the Ministry of Communication and Information to reveal who is behind it and where it is. In the process of this investigation, the Police will be transparent, accountable, and ready to be monitored by the public, so that cases like this do not happen again in the future. Because at this time we have received 8 reports of trading robots and 2 cases similar to Binomo, "stated Dirtipideksus Bareskrim Polri.
