Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Indonesian National Police (INP)’s Criminal Investigation Agency has announced a follow-up investigation into the international online gambling syndicate recently dismantled at the Hayam Wuruk Plaza Tower, Jakarta.

The focus has now shifted toward identifying the financial backers and analyzing the digital infrastructure used by the 321 suspects.

"We will coordinate with relevant agencies to trace the flow of funds and identify their sponsors," said Brigadier General Wira Satya Triputra, the Director of General Crimes, on Sunday (10/5/2026), as cited by antaranews.com.

This includes investigating the individuals or entities responsible for leasing the office space and providing the logistical support for the group’s operations.

Technical teams are also performing forensic analysis on computers and other mobile devices seized during the raid. Of the 321 people arrested, 320 are foreigners predominantly from Vietnam (228), followed by China (57), Myanmar (13), Laos (11), Thailand (5), Malaysia (3), and Cambodia (3).

While the foreigners have been transferred to the Ministry of Immigration and Correctional Affairs), one Indonesian remains in custody at the Criminal Investigation Agency headquarters for further questioning.

Sri Lanka and Indonesia Targeted by Transnational Cybercrime Syndicates In 2026, Sri Lanka has seen a significant increase in cybercrime activities, with over 628 foreign nationals arrested for various illegal activities, including cyber fraud. Recent police operations in Colombo and Matara led to the arrest of 74 Vietnamese and 6 Taiwanese and Chinese nationals suspected of financial scams. Concurrently, Indonesia has emerged as a new hub for online gambling and cyber scams, with 321 foreign nationals arrested in Jakarta, primarily from Vietnam and China, during a raid on an illegal gambling operation. The shift of these operations from Southeast Asia to Sri Lanka and Indonesia is attributed to weakened visa controls and law enforcement in these regions. Authorities in both countries are intensifying efforts to combat these transnational criminal networks, which have been exploiting lax regulations to operate. The ongoing investigations aim to dismantle these networks and prevent further infiltration. 13 sources 72
