BANDA ACEH - Aceh High Prosecutor's Office Investigators have named the Head of the West Aceh Regency Plantation Service with the initials DA as a suspect in the alleged corruption case of the people's palm oil rejuvenation program (PSR)

Head of Legal Information and Public Relations of the Aceh Attorney General's Office, Ali Rasab Lubis, said investigators found evidence and witness statements regarding DA's involvement in the alleged corruption case of the PSR program.

"Based on the results of the examination of witnesses and other evidence, it was found preliminary evidence of DA's involvement in the alleged corruption of the PSR program," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Wednesday, September 13.

Ali Rasab said that with the determination of DA as a suspect, it means that there have been three suspects in the alleged corruption case of the PSR program in West Aceh Regency in 2018-2020.

The two suspects previously named were the former Head of the West Aceh Regency Plantation Service with the initials SM and the Head of the Mandiri Jaya Beusare Producer Cooperative with the initials ZZ, who is the manager of the PSR program.

Ali Rasab revealed that the involvement of suspect DA in the PSR program began when the Mandiri Manufacturer Cooperative Jaya Beusare in 2020 proposed a proposal for PSR program assistance with a budget of IDR 29.29 billion.

"The proposal was proposed by the Mandiri Jaya Beusare Producer Cooperative to the Palm Oil Rejuvenation Fund Management Agency (BPDPKS) through the West Aceh Regency Plantation Service," he said.

However, the land proposed for oil palm rejuvenation is still in the form of forests in which hardwood trees, shrubs, and vacant land are never planted with palm oil.

In addition, the proposed land for obtaining PSR program assistance is an oil palm plantation in the business use rights area (HGU) of private companies.

This is not in accordance with the requirements for recipients of the PSR program, which requires 25-year-old palm oil and productivity below 10 tons per hectare and not on the HGU land of private companies.

"The involvement of the suspect DA approved the proposal. As a result of the management of the PSR, it did not meet the requirements to cause potential state losses," said Ali Rasab.

Investigators ensnared suspect DA with multiple charges, namely the primary indictment violating Article 2 Paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 18 of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended into Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 Paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code.

"Meanwhile, the subsidiary violated Article 3 in conjunction with Article 18 of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended into Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 Paragraph (1) of the 1st Criminal Code. In this case, there may be additional new suspects," explained Ali Rasab.
