JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named PT Loco Montrado (LCM) as a corporate suspect in the alleged corruption case of processing metal anodes that cost the state up to Rp100 billion. This company is known to be working with PT Aneka Tambang (Antam), Tbk.
"KPK has named PT LCM as a corporate suspect in the case of PT Antam's metal anode processing cooperation," said KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, October 14.
Budi said the determination of the suspect was based on an investigation warrant (sprindik) issued last August.
In this case, investigators have also examined a number of parties. One of them is Arie Prabowo Ariotedjo, the former President Director of PT Antam, Tbk, who was questioned on Tuesday, October 7.
However, this examination was not informed at that time. The father of the former Minister of Youth and Sports (Menpora) Dito Ariotedjo was only said to have been questioned on Tuesday, October 14 or a week later.
From the examination, investigators are said to have explored several things. Among them are the cooperation between PT Antam and PT Loco Montrado.
Previously reported, the KPK has named two people as suspects in the case of corruption in the metal anode processing cooperation between PT Aneka Tambang (Antam) Tbk and PT Loco Montrado. They are Siman Bahar and Dodi Marniki (DM) as General Manager of the PT Antam Processing Unit.
