JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is investigating internal discussions at PT Summarecon Agung regarding the application for a building permit (IMB) to the Yogyakarta City Government.

This was done by examining three people from the property company, including the GM Planning of PT Summarecon Agung, Bryan Tony. They were examined as witnesses to complete the dossier of the alleged bribery case that ensnared the former mayor of Yogyakarta, Haryadi Suyuti.

"It was confirmed, among other things, regarding the knowledge of the witness regarding internal discussions at PT SA for submitting an application for an IMB to the Yogyakarta City Government," said Acting Spokesperson for the KPK for Enforcement, Ali Fikri in a written statement to reporters, Friday, June 24.

Apart from Bryan Tony, two other people from PT Summarecon Agung who were also investigated were Raditya Satya Putra and Anton Triatmojo. Actually, investigators will also examine PT Summarecon's Licensing Manager Agung Dwi Putranto Wahyuning.

However, he was not present so investigators will reschedule.

As previously reported, Haryadi Suyuti was named a suspect along with three other people. They are the Head of the Yogyakarta City Government Investment Office and PTSP Nurwidhihartana; Hariyadi's personal secretary and aide, Triyanto Budi Yuwono; and Vice President Real Estate PT Summarecon Agung Tbk, Oon Nusihono.

In this case, Haryadi, who just retired from duty last May, is suspected of receiving facilitation payments related to the issuance of the Royal Kedaton Apartment Building Permit (IMB) in the Malioboro area, Yogyakarta City. In fact, this building does not meet several requirements from the results of research and studies conducted by the PUPR Service.

The discrepancy, among others, relates to the height of the building and the position of the degree of slope of the building from the road area. To smooth the permit, Oon allegedly gave money to Haryadi through Triyanto and Nurwidhihartana up to Rp50 million.

Then, when the IMB was finally issued, Oon came to Yogyakarta to meet Haryadi at his official residence. At that time, he handed over US$27,258 in a brown paper bag or goodie bag.

This money was later confiscated by investigators as evidence in the silent operation that ensnared Hariyadi.

In addition, Haryadi is also suspected of receiving money from the process of issuing development permits in the city of Yogyakarta. However, it is not yet known for sure how many there will be because the investigation will continue to be carried out by KPK investigators.
