JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has the opportunity to summon North Sumatra Governor Bobby Nasution regarding the alleged bribery of a road project in North Sumatra Province. The son-in-law of the 7th President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo (Jokowi), could be questioned if investigators find a connection.

"If there is a connection, whether there is a flow of money or an order, because there should not always be a flow of money, including to the governor, then we will call of course," said Acting Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur Rahayu to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Saturday, June 28.

"For example, if there is only an order to win these parties, we will still not be able to call the money and we will ask for accountability," he continued.

The anti-corruption commission has named five suspects in the bribery case for road construction projects at the PUPR Service and the North Sumatra PJN Satker Region 1. They were initially caught in a hand arrest operation (OTT) on Thursday, June 26.

The five suspects are the Head of the Public Works and Spatial Planning Service (PUPR) of Typhoon Obaja Putra Ginting or Typhoon Ginting; Effendi Siregar's Rasul as the Head of the Old Mountain UPTD of the North Sumatra Province PUPR Service concurrently the Commitment Making Officer (PPK); Heiyanto as PPK of PJN Satker Region I North Sumatra Province; M. End of Efendi Siregar as the President Director of PT DNG; and M. Rayhan Dulasmi Pilang as Director of PT RN.

Typhoon then gave an order to the Rasuli to directly appoint the Akhirun to work on the Sipiongot border Labusel road project and the Hutaimbaru-Sipiongot road construction project. The value reached Rp157.8 billion.

Furthermore, Endun through his staff coordinated with the UPTD Rasul and staff to prepare e-catalog. This process was then multiplied so that PT DGN could win and be given money through account transfers to the Prophet.
