DOC VOI

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has confirmed that former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil will soon be investigated regarding alleged corruption in advertisements for PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR).

KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo said investigators would explore a number of things in the investigation that the exact time was not yet known. Including, about the Royal Enfield that was confiscated from his house but the vehicle certificate on behalf of the aide.

"Of course, later confirmation will also be carried out (about the confiscated Royal Enfield motorbike, ed). ... What kind of vehicle does it come from, whose name is in, to whom, what does it mean. We will investigate later," Budi told reporters quoted on Tuesday, July 29.

Even so, Budi said the confiscation of the big motorbike was carried out because it was suspected to be related to corruption in the procurement of advertisements at Bank BJB. Although, the vehicle was not in the name of Ridwan Kamil.

"So during the search, one of them was secured, one of which was a two-wheeled vehicle and indeed the vehicle was not on behalf of RK's brother," he said.

"However, investigators believe that the vehicle is one of the assets related to this alleged corruption crime," continued Budi.

Previously reported, the KPK confiscated evidence related to the corruption case in the placement of advertisements for PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR) for the period 2021-2023. Among them are deposits worth IDR 70 billion to vehicles.

"We also confiscated a sum of money, but in the form of deposits of approximately Rp. 70 billion, there were several two-wheeled and four-wheeled vehicles," said Acting Director of KPK Investigation, Budi Sokmo, to reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Thursday, March 13, 2025.

In this case, five suspects have been named. They are former President Director of Bank BJB Yuddy Renaldi; Head of Corporate Secretary Division of Bank BJB Widi Hartoto; Agency Controller Antedja Muliatama and Cakrawala Kreasi Mandiri Kin Asikin Dulmanan; Agency Controller of BSC Advertising and PT Wahana Semesta Bandung Ekspres (WSBE) Suhendrik; and Controlling of PT Cipta Karya Sukses Bersama (CKSB) and PT Cipta Karya Mandiri Bersama (CKMB) Raden Sophan Jaya Kusuma.

This case investigation warrant (sprindik) was issued on February 27, 2025. The actions of the five suspects are suspected of having caused the state to lose up to Rp22 billion.

Currently, the detention has not been carried out on five suspects. However, they have been prevented from traveling abroad for six months and can be extended according to the needs of the investigation.
