BATAM - Investigators of Sub-Directorate III of Corruption Crimes at the Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimsus) of the Riau Islands Police submitted phase I of the case file for corruption in the Tanjung Moco Port construction project for the 2015 fiscal year which cost the state finances Rp5.6 billion to the public prosecutor (JPU).

"We have sent the case file back for the second time to the Riau Islands Prosecutor's Office, after it was completed according to the instructions from the prosecutor," said the Direskrimsus of the Riau Islands Police, Kombes Pol. Putu Yudha Prawira was confirmed in Batam, Saturday.

The submission of the case file phase I is the second time, submitted to the Prosecutor's Office of the Riau Islands Prosecutor's Office on Thursday (21/11). Previously, the case file was returned by the prosecutor to investigators in early November because it was not complete formally or materially.

"Currently the file is being investigated by the prosecutor. Hopefully, after this it can be declared complete or P-21," said Yudha. According to the middle-ranking police officer, if the case file is declared complete (P-21) by the prosecutor, his party will immediately carry out the second phase of the delegation, namely, the transfer of the suspect and evidence to the Prosecutor's Office.

"After there is a P-21 from the Prosecutor's Office, the case file is declared complete, so the next stage is stage II, suspects and evidence," he said.

Separately, the Head of the Riau Islands Attorney General's Office, Yusnar Yusuf, confirmed that the Prosecutor's Office had received the transfer of phase I of the case file for the corruption case of the Tanjung Moco Port Port Detains V for the 2015 fiscal year from the Riau Islands Police investigators.

"It's true, the file has been handed back, now the prosecutor will re-examine the completeness of the case file," he said.

In this case, the Riau Islands Police investigators named two people as suspects, namely, H and A. Both are currently convicts of corruption cases handled by the Tanjungpinang Police.

Meanwhile, H is a Commitment Making Officer (PPK) of the Tanjungpinang Class II A Harbormaster and Port Authority (KSOP) Office. Meanwhile, A is the President Director of PT Ikhlas Maju Sejahtera.

This case began when investigators received initial information and started a series of examination activities in June 2024.

Dalam penyelidikan lanjutan kasus ini, tim penyidik menerima hasil laporan pencaluman kerugian negara pada 2 Oktober 2024.

Based on the report, it was found that there was a state loss of more than Rp. 5.6 billion, which was caused by alleged irregularities in the implementation of the port construction project.

After finding a criminal act, as well as state losses, the investigative team collaborated with the Dittipidkor Bareskrim Polri to conduct a case title to determine the suspect.

The case was held on October 17, 2024. The results of the case title decided the determination of two suspects with the initials H and A.
