JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has bagged the name of a forwarding company other than Blueray Cargo which is suspected of bribing officials of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC). Information has been obtained in the investigation process of alleged corruption in the import of goods.
"We have obtained various data and information, including information from the parties concerned with the companies suspected of giving money to individuals at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise for tax management on these goods," said KPK spokesperson Budi Prasetyo to reporters at the KPK Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, quoted Friday, March 6.
Budi said, like Blueray Cargo, this forwarder is suspected of giving money to bring goods that have been ordered by importers into the country.
"Some of the goods suspected of being put in by the forwarders are vehicle spare parts, then there are also garments, and some other mixed goods such as household appliances or kitchen utensils," he explained.
Even so, the KPK has not opened up to any other companies suspected of giving kickbacks. He only confirmed that the summons would be carried out against the forwarder.
Forwarders or freight forwarders are intermediary agents who manage complex logistics chains, customs, and international shipping.
"Later, investigators will certainly summon the companies whose products are subject to taxes and are suspected of being arranged in the Directorate General of Customs and Excise," said Budi.
"Therefore, the KPK appeals to the parties concerned to be cooperative, to support, so that this law enforcement process can run effectively."
As previously reported, the KPK announced six suspects related to alleged bribes and gratuities related to the import of goods at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise after conducting a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on February 4. One of them is the Director of Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (P2 DJBC) for the period 2024-2026, Rizal.
In addition to Rizal, the KPK also named five other suspects. They are Sisprian Subiaksono (SIS) as Head of the Subdirectorate of Intelligence, Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasubdit Intel P2 DJBC); Orlando Hamonangan (ORL) as Head of the Intelligence Section of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasi Intel DJBC); John Field (JF) as owner of PT Blueray (BR); Andri as Head of the Import Documents Team of PT BR; and Dedy Kurniawan as Operational Manager of PT BR.
The KPK suspects that this case began in October 2025 when Orlando Hamonangan and Sisprian Subiaksono together with John Field, Andri, and Dedy Kurniawan committed a conspiracy. They arranged the planning of the import route of goods that would enter Indonesia.
Furthermore, the KPK announced the Head of the Tax Intelligence Section for Enforcement and Investigation (P2) of the Directorate General of Customs (DJBC) Budiman Bayu Prasojo (BBP) as a new suspect in the case of alleged gratification related to the import of goods.
The announcement was made after the arrest was made at the DJBC headquarters in East Jakarta on Thursday, February 26.
Budiman was arrested for allegedly receiving and managing money from entrepreneurs whose products were subject to taxes and importers since November 2024.
As a result of his actions, Budiman Bayu was then suspected of violating Article 12 B of Law No. 31 of 1999 jo. UU No. 20 of 2001 jo. Article 20 letter c of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (KUHP).
