JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has scheduled the examination of four witnesses related to alleged corruption in land acquisition in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon, Jakarta. One of the witnesses summoned was the Deputy Head of the DKI Jakarta BPKD-Head of Regional Financial Management Development for the 2019 DKI Jakarta BPKD, Lusiana Herawati.
"The investigation was carried out at the Corruption Eradication Commission's Office on Jalan Kuningan Persada Lot 4, Setiabudi, Jakarta," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs Ali Fikri told reporters, Thursday, May 3.
In addition, the KPK also examined Plh BP BUMD for the 2019 period, Riyadi; Senior Manager of the Land and Legal Division of Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya, Yadi Robby; and a private party named Darzenalia Azli.
The material for the examination of the four witnesses is not yet known. However, they are suspected of knowing the alleged corruption in land acquisition which caused state losses of up to Rp152.5 billion.
As previously reported, the KPK has officially named the former Managing Director of the Regional Public Company (Perumda) Pembangunan Sarana Jaya Yoory C Pinontoan along with two other suspects, namely Director of PT Adonara Propertindo Tomy Ardian and Deputy Director of PT Adonara Propertindo Anja Runtuwene. In addition, the KPK has also named a corporate suspect, namely PT Adonara Propertindo.
This case began when Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya, which is a BUMD in the property sector, was looking for land in the Jakarta area to be used as a business unit or land bank.
Furthermore, the Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya collaborated with PT Adonara Propertindo which is also engaged in the same field.
From this collaboration, on April 8 2019, it was agreed to sign the Binding of the Sale and Purchase Agreement Deed before a notary which took place at the Perumda Sarana Jaya office. This signature was carried out between the buyers, namely Yoory and Anja Runtuwene.
Furthermore, at the same time, a payment of 50 percent or around Rp. 108.9 billion was made to Anja's bank account at Bank DKI. Next, on Yoory's orders, the next payment was made in the amount of IDR 43.5 billion.
However, in the land acquisition process, Perumda Sarana Jaya is suspected of committing fraudulent actions such as not conducting a study on the feasibility of the land object and not conducting an appraisal study without being supported by the complete requirements according to related regulations.
In addition, this BUMD company is also strongly suspected of carrying out the process and stages of land acquisition not according to procedures and there are documents that are prepared in a back date, as well as an initial price agreement between Anja and Perumda Sarana Jaya before the negotiation process is carried out.
For their actions, the suspects are suspected of violating Article 2 paragraph (1) or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) of the 1st Criminal Code.
