The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the Attorney General's Office had transferred the case of corruption in the procurement of crude oil by Pertamina Energy Trading Ltd. (Petral) or PT Pertamina Energy Services Pte. Ltd (PES) to his institution.

KPK chairman Setyo Budiyanto said this process was carried out by the Attorney General's Office because his agency had already issued an investigation warrant (sprindik).

"Karena tahu bahwa KPK sudah menerbitkan surat perintah penyidikan, sudah melakukan pemeriksaan-pemeriksaan maka penanganannya dari Kejaksaan dilimpahkan," kata Setyo kepada wartawan di Bogor, Jawa Barat, Selasa, 18 November.

In the future, the KPK is ready to coordinate with the Attorney General's Office. Because, Setyo emphasized, these two institutions have been handling the same case from the start.

"Yes, from the prosecutor's office, they will (coordinate, ed) later, because, right, they are also informed that they are also carrying out the same activities," he said.

Previously reported, the KPK has increased the corruption case of crude oil trading and refinery products at PT Pertamina Energy Service Pte. Ltd (Petral) as the subsidiary company of PT Pertamina (Persero) to investigation. The investigation warrant (sprindik) was only issued last October but there are no suspects.

The new sprindik was published after investigators investigated allegations of bribery in the procurement of catalysts at PT Pertamina (Persero) and bribes for the procurement of crude oil and finished products for the 2012-2014 period.

The articles used in this regulation are Article 2 paragraph (1) and/or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code.

In the process, a number of parties have been questioned. Investigators have also studied a number of documents in this case.
