KPK: PT Telkom's Fictitious Project Of State Rugikan Up To Hundreds Of Billions Of Subsidiaries
JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects that PT Sigma Cipta Caraka, a subsidiary of PT Telkom (Persero), has made fictitious procurement of goods and services. As a result, the state lost hundreds of billions.
This was conveyed by KPK Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata when asked about the investigation at the state-owned company.
"Yes, (the loss of the country, ed) is also hundreds of billions, it is a fictitious project if I'm not mistaken," Alexander told reporters in Jakarta quoted on Wednesday, May 15.
Even so, Alexander did not want to specify the suspects. He only said the money spent was used to carry out projects that never existed.
"Financing (the mode, red). The financing project, but, there is nothing to do, the work is fictitious," said Alex.
The calculation of hundreds of billions of state losses is an initial assumption. The results of the audit from the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) have not been submitted to the KPK.
Previously, the KPK was investigating allegations of corruption in the procurement of goods and services in Telkom Group's subsidiary, PT Sigma Cipta Caraka. There are already suspects who have been named in the investigation process.
In addition, there are other cases that are being investigated at the state-owned company. However, the Director of Investigation of the KPK, Asep Guntur Rahayu, did not specify it.
"Meanwhile, there are two, one being investigated (investigated, red) one being investigated (investigated, red) one," Asep told reporters at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, May 13.
"We cannot convey the investigation, of course," said Asep.
