The whereabouts of a Batam civil servant whose bank account shows evidence of transactions that run into trillions of rupiah are unknown.

Batam municipal chief spokesman Ardiwinata told The Jakarta Post on Thursday that his office no longer knew the location of NK, a fourth echelon employee who according to the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK), had a bank account in her name worth Rp 1.3 trillion (US$111 million).

The employee, known by her initials NK, works at the Batam City Investment Board in the One-door Integrated Service.

“I’ve checked with her department and superiors but her location has been unclear since the case came to light. We don’t know whether she’ll report for work. I’ll check the matter again. If I have information, I’ll call you,” said Ardiwinata.

He added that he had met NK several times and estimated she was below 30, but added that he did not know her well.

“I’ve met her before, but I don’t know her personally, especially as she works in another department,” said Ardiwinata.

Earlier, Ardiwinata said that since the PPATK had brought the case to light in the Batam municipal administration in April, it had not been followed up.

Given this, based on Government Regulation No. 54/2010 on civil servants, his office could not impose sanctions on the concerned party.

“The police have yet to provide any information to us, so we cannot take any measures administratively,” said Ardiwinata.

The PPATK said the source of the financial transactions came from oil smuggling.

The flow of funds from the bank account is believed to have reached high-ranking law enforcement officials from the police and the Indonesian Military (TNI), which have responsibility for dealing with oil and smuggling issues in Batam.
