KPK Suspects Another Importer to Provide Car Facilities to Customs and Excise Directorate General Officials

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects that there are importers other than PT Blueray Cargo who provide cars to officials at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise. This suspicion was investigated through the examination of one private party as a witness, namely Ign. Denny Narendra on Monday, May 25.

"Investigators are investigating one of the witnesses from the importer's side regarding the provision of vehicle facilities to parties at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise," said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to reporters at the KPK Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, quoted Tuesday, May 26.

Budi said investigators would continue to delve into the provision of the car facility. "Why did this importer provide vehicle facilities, yes, which were used by individuals at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise," he said.

In addition, the consideration to trap the gift with the gratification article is also open. Because, the official at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise used the car facility for their needs.

"So the vehicles prepared and provided by the employers are used for the operations of the suspects, yes, who have been determined by the KPK. This is for customs operations or for other matters," said Budi.

As previously reported, the KPK announced six suspects related to alleged bribes and gratuities related to the import of goods at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise after conducting a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on February 4. One of them is the Director of Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (P2 DJBC) for the period 2024-2026, Rizal.

In addition to Rizal, the KPK also named five other suspects. They are Sisprian Subiaksono (SIS) as Head of the Subdirectorate of Intelligence, Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasubdit Intel P2 DJBC); Orlando Hamonangan (ORL) as Head of the Intelligence Section of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasi Intel DJBC); John Field (JF) as owner of PT Blueray (BR); Andri as Head of the Import Documents Team of PT BR; and Dedy Kurniawan as Operational Manager of PT BR.

The KPK suspects that this case began in October 2025 when Orlando Hamonangan and Sisprian Subiaksono together with John Field, Andri, and Dedy Kurniawan committed a conspiracy. They arranged the planning of the import route of goods that would enter Indonesia.

Furthermore, the KPK announced the Head of the Tax Intelligence Section for Enforcement and Investigation (P2) of the Directorate General of Customs (DJBC) Budiman Bayu Prasojo (BBP) as a new suspect in the case of alleged gratification related to the import of goods. The announcement was made after the arrest was made at the DJBC headquarters in East Jakarta on Thursday, February 26.

Budiman was arrested for allegedly receiving and managing money from entrepreneurs whose products were subject to taxes and importers since November 2024. As a result of his actions, he is suspected of violating Article 12 B of Law No. 31 of 1999 jo. UU No. 20 of 2001 jo. Article 20 letter c of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (KUHP).
