They are Jimmy Masrin as President Director of PT Caturkarsa Megatunggal as well as President Commissioner of PT Petro Energy; Finance Director of PT Petro Energy Susy Mira Dewi Sugiarta; and Newin Nugroho as President Director of PT Petro Energy.

Meanwhile, the two suspects who have not been detained are Dwi Wahyudi as Managing Director I of LPEI and Arif Setiawan as Managing Director IV of LPEI.

Currently, the anti-corruption commission is investigating the granting of credit to PT Petro Energy. The state losses caused by this rasuah practice reached Rp846.9 billion.
