JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) revealed that the investigation of the former Head of Yogyakarta Customs, Eko Darmanto, has entered the final stage. The case will be held soon.

"ED has not (investigated, red) but is in the final stages," said Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, August 14.

Asep said Eko may be subject to articles on receiving gratuities such as the former Head of Makassar Customs and Hi Pramono. However, he asked all parties to be patient.

The KPK is currently still carrying out a case title or exposure. At this stage, all evidence in the investigation will be revealed in front of the leadership.

"So this exposure will determine later," he said.

Previously, Eko had been clarified regarding his wealth which went viral on social media. The KPK then decided to investigate his assets.

He is known to have recorded his assets of Rp. 15.7 billion in the State Administrators Wealth Report (LHKPN). However, that number shrank to Rp. 6.7 billion because it was deducted by debts of Rp. 9 billion.

It was recorded that Rp. 12.5 billion was recorded in Eko's assets in the form of two land and building assets in Malang and North Jakarta. Meanwhile, Rp. 2.9 billion includes 9 means of transportation.

In detail, Eko owns a BMW sedan 2018 for IDR 850 million, a Mercedes Benz sedan 2018 worth IDR 600 million, a Jeep Willys 1944 for IDR 150 million, a Chevrolet Bell Air 1955 IDR 200 million, a Toyota Fortuner 2019 worth IDR 400 million.

Then, Mazda 2019 for IDR 200 million, Fargo Dodge 1957 worth IDR 150 million, Chevrolet Apache 1957 IDR 200 million, and Ford Bronco 1972 for IDR 150 million. All of these vehicles are registered for their own results.

However, no big motorbike is registered in the LHKPN. In fact, Eko often uploads videos showing off Davidson's Harley and even the Cessna Plane.
