Maria Pauline Lumowa, a fugitive of the Bank BNI Kebayoran Baru graft case, which incurred state losses of Rp 1.2 trillion (US$83 million) in 2003, arrives at the VIP room of Terminal 3 at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in Tangerang, Banten, on Thursday (9/7/2020).

JAKARTA, KOMPAS -- The synergy of government agencies and law enforcers shown during the effort to extradite fugitive Maria Pauline Lumowa shows the country\'s ability to capture fugitives. Similar synergy is also expected in the hunt for other fugitives, such as Joko S. Tjandra, Sjamsul Nursalim and Harun Masiku.

"Maria\'s extradition shows the seriousness of the state in thoroughly investigating the case and bringing those responsible to court. Given to that situation, the state should be able to catch other fugitives," said criminal law professor at the School of Law, Gadjah Mada University Eddy OS Hiariej, when contacted from Jakarta, on Thursday (9/7/2020).
