JAKARTA - Coordinator of the Indonesian Anti-Corruption Society (MAKI) Boyamin Saiman fulfills the summons of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). He was examined as a witness in the alleged money laundering act (TPPU) that ensnared the inactive Banjarnegara Regent Budhi Sarwono.

When he arrived at the KPK, Boyamin did not say much. He only said that he would be examined as a witness after being absent for some time.

Meanwhile, Boyamin was involved in this case because he served as Director of PT Bumirejo.

"Yesterday's follow-up call, we'll just explain later what the question is, we don't know what the question is yet," said Boyamin, met at the KPK's Red and White Building, Jakarta, Tuesday, May 17.

Boyamin admitted that he brought a number of files to be shown to investigators who would examine them.

"This brings the Bumirejo company certificate," he said. Previously, the KPK believed that Boyamin would attend. Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said investigators had already pocketed evidence in the form of statements and matters relating to this case.

"KPK believes that the person concerned will attend the summons and act cooperatively and be honest and frank in front of the Investigation Team and will not cover up various facts that he knows," Ali said in a written statement.

"The investigative team previously had evidence, including statements from various parties and other evidence related to the alleged money laundering offence," he added.

For information, the KPK has named Budhi Sarwono as a suspect in the crime of money laundering (TPPU). The decision was made after investigators developed a bribery case at the PUPR Service and the gratification that ensnared him some time ago.

In this case, Budi is alleged to have hidden his wealth from the two corruption crimes and converted it into assets in the form of movable or immovable property. In addition, the KPK has confiscated assets worth Rp. 10 billion.
