Alleged Citibank embezzler Inong Malinda (aka “Melinda Dee”) siphoned Rp 2 billion (US$232,000) from a customer’s account into her own company, PT Sarwahita Management Group.
“We have found a voucher from the [Citibank] account used [for the transfer] and the Bank Mega account. The owner of the [Citibank] account never transferred the funds. The amount was Rp 2 billion,” National Police financial crimes detective Brig. Gen. Arief Sulistyp said Monday, as reported by tribunnews.com.
The information was based on tracking conducted by the Financial Transactions Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK) and Bank Indonesia (BI). Melinda allegedly transferred the money into a joint account in Bank Mega on August 13, 2009.
He added that Melinda used the transferred funds for herself.
“There has been a withdrawal of these funds, in form of transfers and cash, for the suspect's personal use,” Arief said.
