KPK Extends Detention Of Former Commissioner Of PT Wika Beton In Case Of Bribery In Case Management

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has extended the detention period of former Independent Commissioner of PT Wika Beton, Dadan Tri Yudianto. This step was taken to explore his role in the bribery case in case management that also ensnared the inactive Supreme Court Secretary Hasbi Hasan.

"The investigative team is currently extending the detention period of the suspect DTY for the next 40 days," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters in a written statement, Thursday, July 20.

Dadan will be detained until August 4 at the KPK detention center. "Because there is still a need for time to reveal the real role of DTY's suspect in managing the case in the Supreme Court," said Ali.

Previously reported, the KPK appointed Hasbi Hasan and Independent Commissioner of PT Wika Beton, Dadan Tri Yudianto. This determination relates to allegations of bribery in case management.

The KPK suspects that Hasbi Hasan received money from Dadan Tri Yudianto. He is suspected of pocketing part of the Rp11.2 billion received by the former Independent Commissioner of PT Wika Beton.

The money was called by the anti-corruption commission as a fee for cassation management with the defendant Budiman Gandi Suparman in the Supreme Court. The giving was made after Dadan asked Hasbi to help secure the KSP Inti Dana case.

"Some of the money was allegedly given by the suspect DTY (Dadan Tri Yudianto) to HH (Hasbi Hasan) around March 2022," said Deputy Chair Nurul Ghufron at a press conference at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, June 6.
