Bank BNI cash breaks worth Rp 1.7 trillion, how can Maria Lumowa run away?
Maria Pauline Lumowa is one of the suspects in the BNI Bank Kebayoran Baru Branch Cash Breaking through a Fictitious Letter of Credit (L/C).
In the period October 2002 to July 2003, BNI Bank disbursed a loan worth 136 million US dollars and 56 million euros or equal to Rp 1.7 trillion with the current exchange rate to PT Gramarindo Group owned by Maria Pauline Lumowa and Adrian Waworuntu.
The action of PT Gramarindo Group allegedly received assistance from 'insiders' because BNI still agreed to guarantee L/C from Dubai Bank Kenya Ltd., Rosbank Switzerland, Middle East Bank Kenya Ltd., and The Wall Street Banking Corp which is not a bank correspondence bank BNI .
In June 2003, BNI who was suspicious of the financial transactions of PT Gramarindo Group began to investigate and found the company never exported.
The allegation of this fictitious L/C was later reported to the National Police Headquarters, but Maria Pauline Lumowa had already flew to Singapore in September 2003, a month before being named a suspect.
