Former Head Of Customs Andhi Pramono Allegedly Spread Money So As Not To Be Caught Receiving Gratification

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects that former Head of Makassar Customs Andhi Pramono spread the proceeds from the practice to a number of parties. This allegation was investigated by two witnesses, one of whom was a teacher named Ar Wanita. Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said that Ar Wanita was summoned by a witness on Friday, August 4. He was examined with the entrepreneur, Nusa Syafrizal. "The two witnesses were present and their knowledge was re-explored, among others, still related to the distribution of AP suspect's money to various parties in an effort to obscure the receipt of his gratuities," said Ali in his written statement, Monday, August 7. Ali has not detailed who the parties allegedly received the money. Including, the amount of gratification results that Andhi distributed. Previously, the KPK had detained the former Head of Makassar Customs Andhi Pramono. He is suspected of receiving a gratuity in the form of a fee after becoming a broker for export-import entrepreneurs. To make this acceptance, Andhi allegedly used an account belonging to his trusted person who is a businessman. They became nominee so that the giving to himself was not detected.

It didn't stop there, Andhi was also suspected of committing a crime of money laundering (TPPU). This allegation arose because he disguised the purchase of assets using the names of other people, including his mother-in-law. Andhi is said by the KPK to receive fees of up to Rp28 billion and the amount can continue to grow. The money was then purchased for various purposes such as diamonds, insurance policies, to houses in the Pejaten area, South Jakarta worth Rp20 billion.
