Quoted from ANTARA, the three had the initials FJ, MF, and UH, they are waiting to be proposed for interim replacement (PAW) by their party.

Chairman of the PPP DPC OKU Regency, Aryo Dillah in Baturaja, said that his party had received the Decree of the Governor of South Sumatra Number: 687/KPTS/I/2025 regarding the temporary dismissal of Umi Hartati as a member of the OKU DPRD for the term of office in 2024-2029.

"Until now, we are still waiting for a decision from the PPP DPP to ratify the DPP Decree from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights after the X Congress," he said.

The chairman of the Hanura Party DPC OKU Regency, Joni Awaludin, admitted that his party had received the decree for further processing.

"Yes, it is true that we have received the letter," he said.

He said that currently his party is waiting for party instructions to be carried out by PAW against MF as a member of the council from his party.

"Currently we are still waiting for the medium process. However, the possibility of the process is still ongoing. Moreover, there is already a Governor's Decree," said Joni.

Meanwhile, the chairman of the PDI-P DPC OKU Regency, Fahlevi Maizano, admitted that he had not yet received the physical decree for the temporary dismissal.

"Currently I am out of town, maybe it has been received from the DPC secretariat. However, if there is a temporary suspension, of course it will process for PAW," he said.

Previously, the Corruption Eradication Commission named three members of the OKU DPRD, South Sumatra as suspects in the project fee case at the OKU PUPR Service.

The three are members of Commission III of the OKU DPRD (FJ), Chairman of Commission III of the OKU DPRD (FH) and Chairman of Commission II of the OKU DPRD (UH) who are currently undergoing trial at the Palembang District Court (PN).

The KPK also named the Head of the OKU (Nov) PUPR Service as a suspect along with two suspects from the private sector, namely MFZ and ASS.

This case emerged after a number of members of the OKU DPRD, namely FJ, FH, and UH, allegedly asked for a principal quota of thought (pokir) in the discussion of the 2025 OKU Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget Draft (APBD).

The KPK revealed that the pokir quota was agreed to be transferred to a physical project managed by the OKU Public Works and Spatial Planning Service (PUPR) with an initial value of Rp40 billion.

However, due to budget constraints, this amount was reduced to Rp35 billion, with the project fee still agreed at 20 percent or Rp7 billion.

After the agreement, the OKU PUPR Service budget experienced a drastic increase from Rp48 billion to Rp96 billion which was allegedly due to a political compromise related to project rations for DPRD members.

In a hand arrest operation (OTT) conducted on Saturday, March 15, the KPK confiscated Rp2.6 billion in cash from the perpetrators who had been named as suspects to be used as evidence.
