JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects that the bribes and gratuities obtained by former Papua Governor Lukas Enembe flowed into shares into aviation or aviation companies. Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said this information was investigated by a private employee, Mutmainah, who was summoned as a witness in the money laundering case (TPPU) that ensnared Lukas. The examination was carried out at the KPK's Red and White Building, Friday, September 22. "The witness was present and his knowledge was investigated, among others, related to the alleged placement of money flow from suspect LE to one of the private airlines," Ali said in a written statement to reporters, Monday, September 25. Ali did not specify the name of the company. However, the source said that PT RDG Airlines was suspected of receiving Lukas' money. Quoted from rdgairlines.com, this airline focuses on executive charters such as private jet rentals for businesses and holidays, air taxis or medium to long distance charters, and luxury holidays according to orders. In addition, this company has evacuation operations. There is a fleet of aircraft provided such as 400,000 jets 400, Hawker 800, Hawker 900, Embraer Legacy 600. Returning to witness examination, investigators also summoned Ary Mulyadi who is a private employee and Lusi Kusuma Dewi. It's just that, Ali said, they were absent. "The two witnesses were not present and without confirmation. The KPK again reminded them to be cooperative in attending and the next summons was immediately sent by the investigative team, "he said. As previously reported, Lukas is suspected of not only owning shares in the aviation company. The KPK suspects that he also has a private plane used for his purposes. The ownership was revealed after the KPK investigated the alleged money laundering (TPPU) crime it committed. This case began after he was named a suspect in receiving bribes from the Director of PT Tabi Bangun Papua, Rijatono Lakka. Then, he is said to have received gratuities from other private parties who want to get projects in Papua.

Currently, the KPK has confiscated 27 assets belonging to Lukas. In detail, there is money worth Rp. 81,628,693,000; 5,100 US dollars; and 26,300 Singapore dollars; assets in the form of land and buildings; as well as precious metals.
