JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung admitted that he had received reports of searches in the Sub-Department of the Industry, Trade, Cooperatives, Small and Medium Enterprises (PPKUKM Sub-Department) of the East Jakarta Mayor's Office by the East Jakarta District Attorney.

"Regarding the search for the East Jakarta Mayor's office, I received a report from the Mayor last night," said Pramono in Central Jakarta, Tuesday, November 11.

Pramono emphasized that the DKI Provincial Government supports the East Jakarta Kejari in investigating allegations of corruption in the procurement of sewing machines with a project value of Rp. 9 billion.

"We will provide support to the Prosecutor's Office to follow up on that. So, there is no resistance at all," said Pramono.

Previously, the East Jakarta District Attorney searched the East Jakarta PPUKM Sub-Department room in Block D, 4th Floor, East Jakarta Mayor's Office on Monday, November 10, 2025.

The search was carried out related to the alleged mark-up price for the procurement of sewing machines allocated by the UMKM Service with a total budget of Rp. 9 billion. It is estimated that state losses reached Rp. 4 billion.

Investigators and TNI officers immediately searched every corner of the office to secure data and archives for the procurement of sewing machine items which were budgeted from 2022 to 2024.

"Earlier, a team of investigators from the East Jakarta District Attorney's Office was carried out regarding the procurement of sewing machines with a total of more than Rp. 9 billion," said Head of Special Investigation Unit of the East Jakarta Kejari, Adri Eddyanto Pontoh, Monday, November 10.

The search is part of an investigation into the procurement of sewing machines and strings that take place from 2022 to 2024.

During the search, investigators brought a number of documents and evidence from the East Jakarta Mayor's Office.

"Several documents that we have temporarily taken include Budget Implementation Documents (DPA), computers, Central Processing Units (CPU), and several other documents," he said.

Investigators have pocketed a number of names but have not yet named suspects in this case. The new determination will be made after the results of the audit of state losses from the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) are issued.
