Pandeglang DPRD Member Files Police Report Against Businessman Over Alleged Rp 400 Million Fraud

A member of the Pandeglang DPRD has reported a businessman in Pandeglang over allegations of fraud amounting to Rp 400 million,” said Farid at the Pandeglang Police Station on Wednesday (6/5/2026). Farid explained that the report stems from the suspect borrowing money in 2024 for business capital purposes. However, up to the specified deadline, the borrowed funds were not fully returned by the suspect. “The chronology is that the suspect borrowed capital for a granite business with a promise of repayment in one week to one month. But to this day, the money has not been returned,” he revealed. Farid admitted to having attempted to collect the debt from the suspect. However, according to him, the businessman showed no good faith. “I have tried to collect it directly with friends, dozens of times, but there has been no definite answer. That’s why I want this matter to be brought to the police to resolve the issue,” he said. Farid claimed to have suffered losses of around Rp 200 million or more because the suspect could only pay in instalments. Farid stated that this legal step was taken to prevent other victims. “The remaining amount is still over Rp 200 million,” Farid added. In a separate confirmation, the Head of Criminal Investigation at Pandeglang Police, First Inspector Beni Sukirman, said that they had received the report from Farid. The police will conduct a thorough investigation regarding the report. “After this report, we will trace and investigate it, to see if there is a criminal incident or not, whether the elements are fulfilled or not, and conduct an inquiry into the reported incident,” Beni said.
