The KPK Is Looking For The Recipients Of The Gratification Money Flow From The Former Head Of Yogyakarta Customs

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is investigating the party suspected of having participated in receiving the flow of gratuity money from former Yogyakarta Customs Chief Eko Darmanto. This information was requested from two witnesses, one of whom was a lawyer named Rusadi Ramadhana Nurima.

Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said Rusadi was questioned with Ferima Damasari who is an employee of Aero Wisata. The examination was carried out at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Friday, September 22.

"It was also confirmed that there was a flow of money from the suspect referred to to several other related parties," Ali told reporters in a written statement, Monday, September 25.

In addition, both of them were also confirmed about Eko's acceptance of gratuities. However, Ali has not specified how many.

"The two witnesses were present and their knowledge was investigated, among others, related to the alleged receipt of gratuities, including money by parties designated as suspects in this case," he said.

Actually, there are three other witnesses who will be examined in this case. It's just that they are absent.

The three witnesses were Thio David, Joanna, and Ihromi Partomuan Lubis who were private parties. "The witnesses were not present and without any confirmation from the investigative team," said Ali.

As previously reported, the alleged gratification and money laundering (TPPU) that ensnared Eko Darmanto is being investigated. The KPK has not yet detailed the alleged receipt.

However, a number of information revealed that he received money from a number of parties through his company's account at the state-owned bank.

In that account, still said the source, there is also money that comes in as a down payment (DP) as well as installments for two luxury cars branded Mercedes Benz and BMW. It is suspected that the money giver is a company.
