The Head of the Legal Information Center (Kapuspenkum) of the Attorney General's Office (Kejagung) Harli Siregar revealed the role of seven new suspects in the case of alleged corruption in gold management weighing 109 tons at PT Antam which occurred between 2010 and 2022.

Harli explained that the suspects were working with PT Antam, who had previously been named as suspects. The goal is to match the Antam brand without official cooperation and without paying obligations to PT Antam.

"The suspects not only used manufacturing services for purification, smelting, and printing activities, but also to match the LM Antam brand," Harli told reporters, Thursday, July 18.

Harli added that the total gold counterfeited by attaching the Antam logo reached 109 tons.

"Currently, state losses are still in the process of being calculated," he said.

Previously, the AGO revealed a case of alleged corruption in the management of gold commodity business activities from 2010 to 2022. In this case, 109 tons of gold bearing the PT Antam logo were printed illegally.

To date, the AGO has named 13 suspects. Six suspects are former General Manager of the Mulia Metal Management and Purification Business Unit (UB PPLM) PT Antam from various periods. Meanwhile, seven other suspects are customers of the service.
