The KPK Will Present The President Commissioner Of Mineral Trobos At The Abdul Gani Kasuba Bribery Session

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will present the President Commissioner of PT Mineral Trobos, David Glen Oei as a witness at the Muhaimin Syarif alias Ucu trial. Former chairman of the North Maluku Gerindra Party PDP is the briber of former North Maluku Governor Abdul Gani Kasuba.

However, KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardika has not detailed David's presence at the trial. He asked all parties to wait for the judicial process.

"Just wait for the trial process," Tessa told reporters quoted on Tuesday, November 26.

"The prosecutor has not been able to answer whether the name will be presented at the trial of the case in question or not," he said.

Meanwhile, the matter of David Glen's son's meeting, namely K with Abdul Gani Kasuba, is still being investigated. Tessa said, investigators are still investigating allegations of giving bribes from mining entrepreneurs and ensuring that all parties involved in the rasuah practice will be thoroughly investigated.

"Investigators are still working, so we'll just have to wait for the update in the future," he said.

Previously reported, the KPK named the inactive North Maluku Governor Abdul Gani Kasuba as a suspect in the alleged crime of money laundering (TPPU). He is suspected of washing up to Rp100 billion.

The determination of the suspect was carried out as the development of the alleged bribery of the procurement of goods and services project as well as the granting of permits within the North Maluku Provincial Government. Abdul Gani Kasuba has been sentenced to 8 years in prison in the previous case.

In this case too, the KPK also ensnared Muhaimin Syarif, who is a former chairman of the Gerindra Party DPD and Abdul Gani's confidant. He is currently undergoing trial at the Corruption Court at the Ternate District Court (PN).

Muhaimin was charged with giving bribes to Abdul Gani in the amount of Rp. 4,477,200,000. The money was given several times.

The giving aims to influence Abdul Gani's position in order to provide a number of work packages for the procurement of goods and services in North Maluku to Muhaimin. The time of the incident was called the anti-corruption commission from 2021 to 2023.

This bribe is also intended for the issuance of recommendations or proposals from the governor regarding the application for a mining business permit (WIUP) area in North Maluku from 2021 to 2022.
