BENGKULU - The Bengkulu High Prosecutor's Special Criminal Investigation Team (Pidsus) has again appointed four new suspects related to alleged corruption in the Replacement of the Main Control System (SKU) and AVR of the Musi Hydroelectric Plant in Bengkulu Province from 2022 to 2023.
The four suspects are the Director of PT Yokagawa Indonesia Tulus Sadono, Sales Manager of PT Yokagawa Indonesia Syaifur Rijal, Sales Engineer at PT Yokagawa Indonesia Osmond Pratama Manurung, and Director of PT Austindo Prima Daya Abadi.
"The four people who were named as suspects have their own roles. Of the four people from two suspects, two are the Director of PT. Austindo Prima Daya Abadi and the Director of PT Yokogawa Indonesia, who are all third parties," said Acting Head of the Legal Information Section (Kasi Penkum) of the Bengkulu High Prosecutor's Office, Denni Agustian, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, February 25.
He said that for the three suspects, namely Tulus Sadono, Syaifur Rijal. And Osmond Pratama Manurung collaborated with other parties to set prices for the work of replacing the Musi Hydroelectric Plant Main Control System by offering a price to PT PLN Persero UIK SBS of Rp. 29.40 billion excluding 11 percent VAT.
With this price, it then became the reference value of the contract by the PT PLN UIK SBS Palembang Procurement Officer, even though the actual selling price of the Main Control System from PT Yokogawa Indonesia to PT Hensan Andalas Putera was IDR 17.23 billion.
With this modus, there are indications of state financial losses and unnatural profits to KSO PT Citra Wahana Sekar Buana and PT Hensan Andalas Putera amounting to Rp. 11.66 billion.
"The profit is the mark-up profit price exceeding 10 percent which has been determined by certain parties," he said.
Denni continued, for another suspect, namely Erik Ratiawan as Director of PT. Austindo Prima Daya Abadi in collaboration with the Director of PT. Truba Engineering Indonesia is suspected of acting against the law to obtain benefits by submitting a price offer related to the replacement of AVR equipment for the Musi Bengkulu Hydroelectric Plant system in 2022 to the Official for the Procurement of Goods or Services of PT PLN UIK SBS Palembang for Rp. 21.86 billion.
However, after negotiating the price to Rp20.52 billion and the price was the price stated in the contract, although the actual purchase price of PT. Austindo Prima Daya Abadi to PT Emerson Indonesia was only Rp15.79 billion and included site installation and training work.
After going through a series of acts committed by the suspects, there were indications of state financial losses as well as unnatural profits to the KSO PT Austindo-Truba Engineering, namely IDR 2.69 billion, because the profit was the profit price resulting from the mark up exceeding 10 percent of what had been determined by certain parties.
"We are continuing to investigate the other parties involved and it is not impossible that there will be other suspects," he said.
Previously, the Bengkulu Regional Attorney's Office Pidsus investigators had named two suspects, namely Nehemia Indrajaya, Director of PT Truba Engineering Indonesia and Vice President O And M Planning and Control V at PT PLN Indonesia Power. The suspects in the alleged corruption case of the Musi HPP are Daryanto.
