Authorities have frozen more than 800 bank accounts.
Indonesia.- Police have frozen Rp 154.3bn (US$9.5m) suspected of being linked to online gambling networks. The funds were in 811 bank accounts allegedly used to place wagers or store proceeds, according to the National Police’s Criminal Investigation Agency (Bareskrim).
“There is strong suspicion that the funds originated from online gambling activities,” senior commissioner Ferdy Saragih, head of Bareskrim’s cybercrime unit, said.
The operation followed recommendations from the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK), Indonesia’s anti-money laundering watchdog.
Earlier this month, the Financial Services Authority (OJK) ordered banks to block nearly 26,000 accounts suspected of links to online gambling and to step up identity checks on account holders. Between 2023 and July 2025, over 25,000 accounts were flagged for possible links to gambling transactions worth around Rp 1tr ($61m).
