JAKARTA - The AGO has not yet discovered the fact that there is a flow of funds to political parties in the alleged corruption case in granting export facilities for crude palm oil (CPO).

"Until now there has been no indication of going there (a political party). So don't twist it, we didn't find it there," said Director of Investigation of the Deputy Attorney General for Special Crimes (Jampidsus) Supardi in Jakarta, as reported by Antara, Friday, 20 May.

Until now, the alleged corruption case in the export of crude palm oil involves five suspects, of which four are private parties and one is the Director General of Foreign Trade at the Ministry of Trade.

According to Supardi, his party is working in accordance with the facts, from the current facts there is no evidence of any flow of funds from the suspected CPO export to political parties.

"Until this moment, there are no facts getting there. So ojo (don't) twist it. I think we'll make it up later. We don't have facts, there aren't any," he added.

The AGO is working with the Center for Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis (PPATK) in an effort to trace the flow of funds from the suspects to look for indications of money laundering in this case.

"All cases here must have cooperation with PPATK. That is, if there are indications of money laundering offences, if we want to trace whether there is ML or not, we will definitely cooperate with PPATK," he explained.

The AGO has named five suspects in the alleged corruption case in providing export facilities for CPO and its derivative products, including cooking oil, during January 2021 to March 2022. One of the five suspects is Indrasari Wisnu Wardhana as Director General of Foreign Trade (Dirjen Daglu) of the Ministry of Trade. .

The other four suspects from the private sector are Master Parulian Tumanggor as Commissioner of PT Wilmar Nabati Indonesia, Stanley MA as Senior Manager of Corporate Affairs of PT Pelita Agung Agrindustri/Permata Hijau Group, Picare Tagore Sitanggang as General Manager of PT Musim Mas General Affairs, and Lin Che Wei as the founder and policy advisor/analyst of PT Independent Research & Advisodry Indonesia.

The actions of the suspects resulted in state economic losses, namely the expensiveness and scarcity of cooking oil, resulting in a decrease in household consumption and small industries that use cooking oil and complicate people's lives.
