JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) examined the former Cirebon Regent Sunjaya Purwadisastra today. He was questioned as a witness to complete the Hyundai Engineering Construction General Manager (GM) file, Herry Jung.

"The examination was carried out at the Sukamiskin Class I Penitentiary in Bandung," said KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo to reporters in a written statement, Thursday, May 8.

Budi has not detailed the material examined by investigators from the examination. Herry Jung was named a suspect in 2019 or when the KPK was led by Agus Rahardjo, et al for allegedly giving bribes.

The determination of the suspect Herry Jung is the development of the hand arrest operation (OTT) that ensnared Sunjaya and the Secretary of the Cirebon PUPR Office Gatot Rachmanto on October 24, 2019.

From this process, during the trial, Sunjaya was charged by the KPK prosecutor with receiving gratuities and bribes worth Rp. 64.2 billion. He also disguised the results of this fraudulent practice through the crime of money laundering worth Rp. 37 billion.

In the indictment, the prosecutor also said that Sunjaya received a deposit in 2017-2018 so that the Cirebon PLTU 2 project was facilitated. In fact, the project construction process contradicts the Cirebon Regency Regulation No. 17 of 2013 concerning the Regional Spatial Planning Plan (RTRW) of Cirebon Regency 2011-2031.

As for Herry Jung, he has not yet been detained. The bribe value given is said to have reached Rp6.04 billion from his initial promise of Rp10 billion.

The giving was carried out in stages through the Head of the Beber Sub-district of Cirebon Regency, Rita Susana, who is also the wife of the Astanajapura Sub-district Head Mahmud Iing Tajudin, on Sunjaya's orders. The process is carried out by making a fictitious Work Order (SPK) with PT MIM (Milades Indah Mandiri).
