JAKARTA - The inactive Mayor of Cimahi, Ajay Muhammad Priatna, admitted that he had been asked for Rp. 5 billion by a party claiming to be a KPK officer. This admission was conveyed at a trial held at the Bandung Corruption Court regarding the hospital project bribery.

Responding to this, Acting KPK spokesman Ali Fikri asked all parties including the public to be vigilant if there were people or groups claiming to be from their institution with various false attributes. Because, this is not the first time this has happened.

"Certain parties acting on behalf of the KPK and claiming to be able to help settle cases at the KPK by asking for a number of rewards have often happened," Ali said in a written statement, Tuesday, April 20.

Such persons, he continued, often claim to be KPK employees and are equipped with various false attributes. In operating, they often carry out threats and extortion.

"For this reason, the Corruption Eradication Commission reminds the public again that if the public knows there are parties acting on behalf of the KPK and asks for money or other compensation, they should immediately report to the KPK through the information [email protected] or call center 198," he said.

Furthermore, Ali explained, each KPK employee must be provided with an assignment letter and official identity. "(They, red) did not ask for any facilities or compensation from the parties they met," he said.

Meanwhile, regarding Ajay's confession at trial, the KPK will certainly carry out an investigation. "Regarding the defendant Ajay MP's confession at trial, the KPK prosecutor will certainly study it," he said.

During the trial, Ajay, who was charged with accepting a bribe of Rp1.6 billion, said that KPK officers had come and asked him for money. The man who claims to be an anti-graft commission officer is named Roni.

The former PDI-P politician said Roni's arrival was related to the issue of Aa Umbara before being named a suspect in the Covid-19 Social Assistance case in West Bandung. Furthermore, the man asked for Rp. 5 billion.
