JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) prevented the General Treasurer (Bendum) of the Nahdlatul Ulama Executive Board (PBNU), Mardani H Maming, from being a suspect. This information was confirmed by the Directorate General of Immigration.
"Yes (prevented as a suspect, ed)", said Sub-Coordinator of Public Relations of the Directorate General of Immigration, Achmad Nur Saleh, confirming the information in a written statement, Monday, June 20.
Achmad did not elaborate on Mardani's legal status. Apart from the former Regent of Tanah Bumbu, there was another person who was also prevented, namely Rois Sunandar Maming. He is the younger brother of Mardani.
Both were prevented for six months starting from June 16 to December 16 next.
Meanwhile, the Spokesperson for the KPK for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, confirmed that he had proposed to prevent Maming and Rois from going abroad. This prevention is carried out related to the investigation process carried out.
"It's true, the KPK has submitted a request to prevent immigration from two people regarding the alleged corruption that we are currently investigating", Ali told reporters in a written statement.
Even so, Ali did not specify what cases were being handled. The reason is that investigators are currently collecting evidence.
"We will always convey any developments", said Ali.
"Currently we are still collecting and completing the evidence in the intended investigation", he added.
Previously reported, Mardani H Maming was questioned by KPK investigators some time ago. After being questioned, he admitted that he was asked for information regarding his problem with the owner of PT Jhonlin Group Samsudin Andi Arsyad alias Haji Isam.
Even so, Maming's name was actually mentioned as receiving Rp89 billion in money in a trial for alleged bribery of a mining business permit (IUP) in Tanah Bumbu Regency which was held at the Tipikor Court, Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan (Kalsel).
This allegation was conveyed by the younger brother of former President Director of PT Prolindo Cipta Nusantara (PCN) Henry Soetio, Christian Soetio. At that time, Christian claimed to know that there was a flow of funds to the former Regent of Tanah Bumbu Mardani H Maming through PT Permata Abadi Raya (PAR) and PT Trans Surya Perkasa (TSP).
The money transfer has been going on since 2014. The amount of tens of billions of rupiah is referred to as the amount quoted based on PT PCN's financial statements.
