ACEH - Prosecutors of the Aceh High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) questioned two Southeast Aceh District Government officials regarding allegations of corruption in the procurement of cattle.
Head of the Information and Legal Section of the Aceh Attorney General's Office, Munawal Hadi, said the examination was to complete the investigation information.
"The two officials were questioned as witnesses. The position of the case has been upgraded to the investigation stage, but investigators have not yet named the suspect," said Munawal Hadi in Banda Aceh as reported by Antara, Tuesday, January 25.
The two officials who were examined had the initials JM as a member of the VII Election Working Group of the ULP for the Procurement of Goods/Services, Southeast Aceh Regency.
"And with the initials ZF as Expenditure Treasurer at the Southeast Aceh Regency Agriculture Service. Both were examined by the investigating prosecutor in the Special Crimes Division," added Munawal.
Munawal said that the procurement of cattle was managed by the Southeast Aceh Regency Agriculture Service in the 2019 budget year with a value of Rp. 2 billion. The cattle purchased from the procurement were 200 heads.
In the procurement, said Munawal Hadi, the implementation of the work is not from a good nursery and has a livestock health guarantee. As a result, many of the cows purchased are sick.
The examination and request for information, said Munawal Hadi, were carried out to find legal facts related to allegations of fraud in the procurement of cattle at the Southeast Aceh Regency Agriculture Service.
"The examination of the two officials was carried out by implementing strict health protocols, including wearing masks and maintaining distance," said Munawal Hadi.
