Bareskrim raid PT DSI in major digital investment fraud case; losses reach Rp2.4 trillion

Jakarta, Thekabarnews.com—The National Police Criminal Investigation Department (Bareskrim) has raided the offices of PT Dana Syariah Indonesia (DSI) in District 8, SCBD, South Jakarta. This is part of an ongoing investigation into claims of large-scale financial crimes.

The Bareskrim’s Directorate of Special Economic Crimes (Dittipideksus) carried out the raid after hearing about possible fraud, embezzlement, falsifying financial accounts, and money laundering operations connected to the company’s digital investing platform.

Investigators discovered that the alleged fraud entails pushing fake projects to the public using data from previous borrowers without their knowledge or consent. PT DSI then used its digital platform to advertise these projects. As a result, these projects looked like real investment prospects.

Bareskrim has talked to 28 witnesses since the official inquiry started on January 14, 2026. 18 of those witnesses were from PT DSI’s own management. Meanwhile, the remaining ones were from the Financial Services Authority (OJK).

Authorities took several documents and electronic evidence during the operation. Bareskrim also froze multiple bank accounts belonging to PT DSI, its escrow accounts, affiliated companies, and several personal accounts believed to be linked to the crime.

Based on a joint assessment with OJK, investigators believe the scam may have affected about 15,000 lenders. Furthermore, investigators anticipate a total loss of over Rp2.4 trillion between 2018 and 2025.

Bareskrim is working with several organizations, including the Attorney General’s Office, the Financial Transaction Report and Analysis Center (PPATK), and the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK), to follow the money and provide victims the best chance of getting their money back.

Police Brigadier General Ade Safri, head of the Sub-Directorate at Dittipideksus Bareskrim, stressed that his team is conducting the investigation professionally and transparently.

“The inquiry will continue until it becomes clear who is responsible for the crime and who the suspects are,” Ade Safri stated.

Once they have finished looking at the digital evidence and financial transactions, police said they will take more legal proceedings.
