JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) continues to investigate the fee received by former officials of the Directorate General of Taxes at the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) Rafael Alun Trisambodo.

"The investigative team has finished examining witnesses," said Head of the News Section Ali Fikri in a written statement, Thursday, July 20.

The search was carried out through the examination of three witnesses on Tuesday, July 18. The three witnesses, namely the Finance Manager of PT Cubes Consulting, Yulianti Noor; Richard R. Wiriahardja and Ciswanto, have entrepreneur status, were asked by investigators regarding the receipt of money made by Rafael through his tax consulting firm.

"Witnesses were present and their knowledge was explored, among others, related to the fee income received by the suspect RAT from several taxpayers through his tax consulting firm," he said.

Ali has not yet detailed the heat received by Rafael. However, the statements of the three are believed to make light of the receipt of the money that occurred.

Rafael is suspected of having received gratuities of 90,000 US dollars from several taxpayers through his company, PT Artha Mega Ekadhana (AME). This acceptance has occurred since 2011 when he served as Head of Audit, Investigation, and Tax Collection at the Regional Office of the Directorate General of Taxes East Java 1.

Rafael's number of gratuities can still increase because investigators are still continuing to investigate. Given that the company has handled many clients who have difficulty reporting tax books.

Next, the KPK again named Rafael as a suspect in the alleged crime of money laundering (TPPU). He is suspected of diverting or disguising the hot money he received.

In this development, investigators confiscated a number of Rafael's assets. Among them are Toyota Camry and Land Cruiser cars, a big motorbike of the Triumph 1,200 CC type.

It did not stop there, the anti-corruption commission confiscated 20 assets in the form of land and buildings spread across a number of cities such as Yogyakarta and Manado. The value reaches Rp150 billion.
