JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that the President Director of PT Pertamina (Persero) Nicke Widyawati was not cooperative in asking for information regarding the alleged ethical violation of KPK Deputy Chair Lili Pintauli Siregar regarding the receipt of accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP.

Member of the KPK Supervisory Board Syamsuddin Haris said his party had scheduled a summons for Nicke for questioning. However, he was not present so that the clarification of the alleged ethical violation was hampered.

"The clarification on Pertamina has not been completed because the Pertamina president director is not cooperative. He has been invited for clarification and rescheduled, but he did not attend," said Syamsuddin Haris in a written statement to reporters, Tuesday, April 26.

The KPK Supervisory Board asked Nicke to cooperate. The reason is that Lili Pintauli cannot now be questioned because the collection of evidence and information has not been completed.

"Clarification to the LPS mother has been delayed because the collection of materials and information from external parties has not been completed," he said.

"Dewas hopes that the cooperation between the President Director of Pertamina can work together and be cooperative in uncovering alleged ethical violations by the LPS mother," added Syamsuddin.

For information, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Council once scheduled to ask for information from the President Director of PT Pertamina (Persero) Nicke Widyawati on Thursday, April 21. Only, he wasn't there.

It was previously reported that Lili was suspected of receiving gratuities in the form of hotel accommodations and tickets to watch the Mandalika MotoGP from a state-owned company which was later named as a member of the KPK Supervisory Board, Syamsuddin Haris, namely PT Pertamina (Persero).

This complaint was then followed up by the KPK Council by asking for clarification from a number of parties. In addition, Tumpak Hatorangan et al have asked related parties to bring proof of booking accommodation at Amber Lombok Beach Resort and Mandalika MotoGP tickets at the Grandstand Premium Zone A-Red.

This is not the first time this complaint has been made against Lili. On August 30, 2021, the Corruption Eradication Committee (KPK) Council stated that Lili was proven to have violated the code of ethics and code of conduct, so she was sentenced to severe sanctions.

He was found guilty of violating the code of ethics and behavioral guidelines in the form of abuse of influence as a KPK leader for personal interests and dealing directly with the party whose case is being handled by the KPK, namely the Mayor of Tanjungbalai M Syahrial.

For her actions, Lili was given a severe sanction in the form of cutting her basic salary by 40 percent for 12 months or Rp. 1,848 million.
