JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to open the results of the investigation into the alleged corruption of Formula E in DKI Jakarta. In fact, in this process usually the anti-corruption commission will not be much open. "We are also considering what if the investigation process is opened so that the public knows what the KPK has obtained," said KPK Deputy Chair Alexander Marwata to reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Monday, October 3. Alex said they chose to be open in investigating this case to fight the growing issues. Moreover, the KPK has recently been called criminalizing. It is hoped that in the future the public can continue to follow the ongoing investigation. Later, a number of information will be opened, including statements from witnesses. "From the statements of the witnesses who have been summoned, what they explained. So that the public is no longer suspicious as if we are criminalizing someone," he said. As previously reported, the KPK confirmed that it was investigating allegations of corruption in the Formula E racing event in DKI Jakarta. There are several parties who have been summoned, one of which is the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan on Wednesday, September 7. After the summons, it was reported that Anies would be named a suspect. This step was later accused of thwarting him in the 2024 Presidential Election (Pilpres). Apart from Anies, a number of parties have also been summoned for questioning for wisdom. One of them, the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edy Marsudi, who admitted that he had explained about the loan of Rp180 billion from the DKI Jakarta Dispora to pay the commitment fee to Formula E Operations (FEO).
