Three Tax Fraud Suspects Handed Over, Losses 11.1 Billion Rupiah

Tax investigators handed over three suspects because false tax invoices and missing VAT caused a loss of 11.1 billion rupiah; they face prison and fines. The Central Java tax office transferred RH, KH, and MM to the Semarang District Attorney on 10 December 2025.

RH, director of PT DPE, and KH are alleged to have issued fictitious tax invoices for July‑December 2022, while MM, through PT GBP, failed to file the August 2020 VAT return and submitted false data for February‑March 2020. The state loss is estimated at 8.5 billion and 2.6 billion rupiah respectively, totalling about 11.1 billion rupiah under Articles 39A and 39 of the Tax Law.

RH and KH may receive prison terms of 2‑6 years and fines of 2‑6 times the evaded tax; MM faces 6 months‑6 years imprisonment and fines of 2‑4 times the unpaid tax. Officials stress the need for taxpayer compliance and open communication with tax offices to prevent similar violations.
