DENPASAR - The High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) Bali has named two new suspects related to the alleged corruption of the subsidized house assistance fraud case in the Buleleng Regency area, Bali.

The two suspects have initials KB as the owner and Director of PT. Pacung Prima Lestari and Relationship Manager of the State-Owned Bank, which distributes credit with the initials IKADP.

Both of these people were named suspects in the case of developing alleged corruption in the construction of houses for low-income people (MBR) in Buleleng Regency, Bali.

The Bali Attorney General previously appointed the Head of the Buleleng Regency Investment and One-Stop Service (DPMPTSP) Office, initials IMK, on March 20, 2025 for extortion related to the issuance of permits for the construction of houses for low-income people in Buleleng Regency.

Head of the Bali High Prosecutor's Office, Chatarina Muliana, said that his party had named two suspects in the alleged corruption case for the acquisition of houses for low-income people or subsidized houses from 2021 to 2024 in Buleleng Regency.

"We have named two suspects, namely KB as the owner and Director of PT. Pacung Prima Lestari and suspect IKADP as an employee of one of the distributing banks, in the investigation of the alleged corruption case for the acquisition of houses for low-income people," said Chatarina, Wednesday, December 17.

The determination of the two suspects was confirmed by the Bali Prosecutor's Office based on the investigation process and the evidence obtained, namely the testimony of witnesses, expert testimony, letters, instructions and evidence that had been successfully seized.

"The number of witnesses who have been examined in this case is 50 people and 3 experts," he said.

The two's actions were explained to be related to the distribution of Credit for Ownership of Simple Houses or subsidies (KPRS) financed by the Housing Financing Liquidity Facility (FLPP) for low-income people.

Then, based on evidence, the suspects fabricated documents for 399 applications using the ID cards of people who passed the BI KPRS checking, at 4 distributing banks.

The engineered requirements range from the KPRS application in the form of a work certificate, salary slip or income certificate.

"There are 399 credits for owning a simple or subsidized house enjoyed by people who are not entitled or do not meet the requirements as beneficiaries or target groups," he explained.

Meanwhile, the IKADP suspect received a reward of Rp. 400 thousand per unit of house that was agreed and credited.

"As a result of the actions of KB as the Director of PT. Pacung Permai Lestari has caused losses to the state treasury of around IDR 41 billion. And the suspect IKADP as an employee of one of the distributing banks received a reward of IDR 400 thousand per unit of housing," he said.

"So in this alleged corruption case, it has enriched or benefited the suspects KB and IKADP," he continued.
