JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) appreciates the AGO's decision to name the former President Director of PT Garuda Indonesia Emirsyah Satar as a suspect.

Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said that the investigators had handled this case before going to trial. However, the determination is considered a form of strengthening law enforcement together.

"This is a form of joint strengthening of law enforcement for corruption in Indonesia," said Ali in a written statement to reporters, Monday, June 27.

Ali said that his party had handled allegations of corruption at the state-owned company, including the crime of money laundering (TPPU).

At that time, Emirsyah Satar and former President Director of PT Mugi Rekso Abadi, Soetikno Soedarjo, were prisoners and now their case has permanent legal force. "And the convicts are still serving their sentences in prisons," said Ali.

The KPK hopes that the determination of the suspect will then be followed up with optimal handling from the Attorney General's Office. Thus, law enforcement can provide a deterrent effect for the perpetrators and restore state losses.

Ali emphasized that his party is ready to cooperate with the Supreme Court. "KPK is committed to providing its support in the spirit of synergy in eradicating corruption between APH," he said.

The Attorney General's Office has named Emirsyah Satar, the former President Director of PT Garuda Indonesia, and Soetikno Soedarjo, as suspects in the alleged corruption in the ATR72-600 aircraft rental.

Apart from Emirsyah Satar and Soetikno Soedarjo, the Attorney General's Office has also named three other people as suspects. They are Setijo Awibowo (SA) as VP Strategic Management Office Garuda Indonesia 2011-2012; Agus Wahjudo as Executive Project Manager Aircraft Delivery PT Garuda Indonesia 2009-2014; and Albert Burhan (AB) as VP Vice President Treasury Management of PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk for the period 2005-2012.

As a result of their actions, the suspects are suspected of violating Article 2 paragraph 1 or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph 1 of the 1st Criminal Code.
