JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) continues to investigate the alleged receipt of bribes by the inactive Bekasi Mayor Rahmat Effendi or Pepen. One of them is by studying the civil service regulations in the city government he leads.
This investigation was carried out by the KPK by examining the Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Bekasi City, Reny Hendrawati. He was questioned last Friday, February 4th.
Apart from Reny, the investigation regarding the staffing regulations was carried out by examining another witness. He is the Regional Assistant for Government of the Bekasi City Government, Yudianto.
"Both of them were present and confirmed, among other things, related to staffing regulations within the Bekasi City Government," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri told reporters, Saturday, February 5.
In addition, Ali said that KPK investigators also examined other witnesses, namely PT Hanaveri Sentosa staff, Fran Culio. He was examined for confirmation regarding the compensation process related to land use to build the Kota Bintang area.
In fact, during the investigation, the anti-corruption commission also summoned another witness, Ingchelio alias Ince, who is a staff member of PT Hanaveri Sentosa or Kota Bintang Rayatri. However, he was not present.
"It will be rescheduled," said Ali.
Previously reported, Rahmat Effendi or Pepen along with eight other people were named by the KPK as suspects for alleged bribery in the procurement of goods and services as well as the auction of positions in the Bekasi City Government.
Pepen with the Secretary of the Investment Office and PTSP, M Bunyamin; Head of Jatisari Village, Mulyadi; Jatisampurna Sub-district Head, Wahyudin; and the Head of the Bekasi City Housing, Settlement, and Land Office, Jumhana Lutfi, were named as recipients of bribes.
Meanwhile, the four suspected givers are the Director of PT MAM Energindo, Ali Amril; private party, Lai Bui Min; Director of Bintang Rayatri City, Suryadi; and the sub-district head of Rawalumbu, Makhfud Saifudin.
