KPK Continues To Track Assets Heri Gunawan And Satori After Being Named As Suspects In The BI-OJK CSR Case

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) continues to track down assets belonging to NasDem Party legislators Satori and Heri Gunawan as Gerindra Party legislators.

Both are suspects in the alleged corruption of Bank Indonesia's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds (BI) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK) for the period 2020-2023.

KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo said the tracking was carried out because it was suspected that Satori and Heri Gunawan had hidden assets from the proceeds of corruption.

"KPK through investigators is still focused on tracing and tracking related to assets suspected of being related or sourced from the proceeds of this corruption crime," Budi told reporters, Saturday, September 6.

Budi also said that the tracking was carried out by investigators to optimize the return of assets resulting from corruption to the state. Moreover, both of them were also charged with money laundering (TPPU).

"In the construction of this case, the KPK imposes allegations of gratification articles and money laundering. This means that investigators are focused on alleged assets that are transferred or hidden," he said.

As for tracking Satori's assets and Heri Gunawan's assets, investigators summoned a number of parties. Among them are Iman Adinugraha as a member of the DPR from the Democratic Party faction on Wednesday, September 3.

He was questioned by investigators about the flow of money and assets belonging to Heri Gunawan at that time.

Then, the KPK also confiscated 15 cars belonging to Satori which were in Cirebon, West Java on September 1-2. The details are Toyota Fortuner 3 units, Mitsubishi Pajero 2 units, Toyota Camry 1 unit, Honda Brio 2 units, Toyota Innova 2 units, Toyota Yaris 1 unit, Mitsubishi Xpander 1 unit, Honda HRV 1 unit, and Toyota Alphard 1 unit.

Previously reported, the KPK officially announced the legislators of the DPR from the NasDem Party faction, Satori and Heri Gunawan, who are legislators of the DPR from the Gerindra Party faction as suspects in the alleged corruption of BI CSR funds. They are suspected of receiving gratuities and committing money laundering (TPPU).

In this case, Satori allegedly received a total of IDR 12.52 billion. The details are IDR 6.30 billion from BI; IDR 5.14 billion from OJK through Financial Counseling activities; and IDR 1.04 billion from other working partners of Commission XI of the DPR.

The money is allegedly used for personal needs, such as deposits, land purchases, showroom construction, purchases of two-wheeled vehicles, and purchases of other assets.

Meanwhile, Heri Gunawan received a total of Rp15.86 billion and used it also for personal gain. The details are Rp6.26 billion from BI; Rp7.64 billion from OJK through Financial Counseling activities; and Rp1.94 billion from other working partners of Commission XI DPR.

The money is then accommodated in an account. Heri Gunawan then used it to build restaurants, manage drink outlets, purchase land and buildings to purchase four-wheeled vehicles.

The social funds received by the two suspects from BI and OJK were immediately distributed to 4 foundations managed by Rumah Aspirasi Heri Gunawan and 8 foundations managed by Rumah Aspira Satori.
