JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of Commission VI of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Andre Rosiade, stated that his party agreed not to form a working committee (Panja) in the Pertamina Patra Niaga corruption case. The reason is that Commission VI of the DPR does not want to interfere with legal issues that are currently being handled by the Attorney General's Office.
"Indeed, there is a proposal to form a Panja, but the majority of factions in Commission VI have agreed to assess that the Pertamina case is not necessary. Because this case is already in the realm of law, at the Attorney General's Office," said Andre Rosiade, Tuesday, March 11.
Andre assessed that the most important thing to do now is to improve Pertamina's body. Internal improvements, according to Andre, need to be done so that similar cases do not occur again in the future.
"We assess that the process that we have to do at Commission VI is to ensure that Pertamina makes changes and improvements internally. So in our opinion, the majority of factions, yes, we agree that there is no need to form a Pertamina committee or special committee," said the Gerindra legislator.
Regarding the legal process, Andre said that his party had completely handed it over to the Attorney General's Office.
"Moreover, 9 people have been detained and this case continues to roll, many parties will continue to be summoned by the Attorney General's Office. Of course once again we in Commission VI give full support to the Attorney General's Office," said Andre.
In line with Commission VI, previously, Commission XII of the DPR also stated that there was no discourse on the formation of a special committee (special committee) by the DPR to address the corruption case of crude oil governance and refinery products at PT Pertamina.
Deputy Chairman of Commission XII DPR RI Bambang Haryadi emphasized that his party entrusted the Attorney General's Office (AGO) to investigate cases with state losses estimated at Rp1 quadrillion.
"There is no discourse on the special committee, we believe in the professionalism of the Attorney General's Office. We are not included in the realm of law, please enforce the law as strictly as possible," Bambang told reporters, Friday, March 7.
Bambang said the DPR fully supports the law enforcement carried out by the AGO in investigating the Pertamina corruption case. The DPR also supports the Attorney General in collaboration with the BPK RI to calculate state losses in the case.
