VIVAnews - Directorate General of Taxes teams up with Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to probe into bank accounts owned by dubious tax officials.
Director General of Taxes, Fuad Rahmany, said the Indonesian antigraft commission now handles those officers believed as having been involved in suspicious transactions. In addition, Directorate General of Taxes also collaborates with police and Finance and Development Monitoring Board in taking measures.
Fuad said serious penalties will be granted to any of the officials who are found guilty.
A top case of corruption which took in a mid-ranking tax official Gayus Tambunan has been a trigger for the solid investigation.
Earlier, Indonesian Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) focused efforts on looking into tax and customs and excise officials. PPATK Chief Yunus Husein delivered findings that PPATK gathered concerning tax officials' bank accounts.
PPATK inquired bank accounts belonging to 3,616 officials and 12,089 belonging to their families.
The investigation reveals surprising outcome. More Gayus-like officials were detected. Cash transactions ranging to between Rp 500 million and Rp 27 billion per tax official were discovered.
