  "account": "A Malaysian national has reported a senior police officer in North Sulawesi for alleged fraud and deception related to a gold mine investment. The unnamed individual, identified as S bin AS, filed a police report on August 20 against Sr. Comr. Fahrurozi. Fahrurozi's lawyer, Bagas Pangestu Pribadi, disclosed the details at a press conference held at the National Police's Criminal Investigation Department on Tuesday. According to the SP2HP investigation progress report dated September 14, detectives had questioned 15 witnesses and inspected two gold mine sites in North Sulawesi. The locations involved were Ratatotok Satu and Ratatotok Dua villages in Ratatotok district, Southeast Minahasa regency, and South Tanoyan village in Lolayan district, Bolaang Mongondow regency. Pribadi expressed appreciation for the detectives' efforts, stating that the report shows progress in the case investigation. The police officer, Fahrurozi, denied all allegations. The connection between S bin AS and Fahrurozi began in May 2025, when the Malaysian was introduced to the officer through a third party at the Bareskrim office. Fahrurozi reportedly offered the Malaysian a gold mine investment, promising that all necessary permits would be obtained soon.",
