JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that the former chairman of the East Java Provincial DPRD Kusnadi received a fee of 15-20 percent or Rp79.7 billion from the total share of basic thought grants worth Rp398.7 billion for four years.

This was conveyed by the acting (Plt) Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK Asep Guntur Rahayu during the detention of four of the 21 suspects in the East Java Province community group bribery (pokmas) case.

"From the poor budget, there was an agreement to distribute fees between brother KUS and korup. Brother KUS got around 15-20 percent," Asep told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Thursday, October 2.

For four years, Asep said, Kusnadi received a poor allotment of IDR 54.6 billion in 2019; IDR 84.4 billion in 2020; IDR 124.5 billion in 2021; and IDR 135.2 billion in 2022. So, in total the amount reached IDR 398.7 billion.

Then the rations were distributed to a number of field coordinators (korlap).

They are Hasanuddin who is a member of the East Java DPRD for the period 2024-2029 and previously a private party from Gresik Regency, East Java; Jodi Pradana Putra as a private party from Blitar Regency, East Java; Sukar who is a former Village Head from Tulungagung Regency, East Java; and Wawan Kristiawan and A. Royan as private parties from Tulungagung.

Four of them have now been detained for the first 20 days from October 2-22 at the KPK Detention Center (Rutan) Red and White Building Branch.

The corlaps made a proposal for grant funds by determining the type of work themselves, making their own Budget Plan (RAB), and the Accountability Report (LPJ) themselves.

Asep explained that this consolidation was also accompanied by the distribution of fees to other parties besides Kusnadi. The details are that the corlap gets 5-10 percent; the pokmas management gets 2.5 percent; and the admin for making proposals and LPJ gets around 2.5 percent.

"So that the poor funds that are really used for community programs are only around 55 percent to 70 percent of the initial budget," he said.
