Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) is coordinating with police and the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) to block more than 4,000 bank accounts linked to two online gambling bosses arrested earlier this month.
Friderica Widyasari Dewi, the OJK’s Chief Executive for Financial Consumer Protection, said on Sunday (25/5/2025)that the accounts were used by suspects OHW and H, who allegedly operated at least 12 illegal gambling websites, including ArenaSlot77, Togel77, and Royal77VIP.
“This large number of accounts will be handled through coordinated efforts with the Satgas PASTI task force, involving OJK, the police, and PPATK,” she said, as quoted by antaranews.com.
The two suspects were arrested by the Indonesian National Police (INP) on 7 May 2025 on charges of money laundering from online gambling proceeds. Suspect OHW served as commissioner and Suspect H as director of PT A2Z ST, the front company allegedly used to channel illicit funds.
