JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has confirmed that the Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Lili Pintauli Siregar, will be tried in relation to the alleged receipt of MotoGP viewing facilities. This process will not be influenced by various issues that arise, including the resignation of Lili Pintauli.

"Dewas will not be affected by the bribery issue or the news that LPS (Lili Pintauli Siregar) has resigned," said KPK Council member Syamsudin Haris in a written statement, Tuesday, July 5.

The ethics trial, continued Syamsuddin, would be held according to the specified schedule. It is certain that the Council will work according to the applicable regulations.

"Still according to the schedule on July 5, 2022, at 10:00 WIB," said Syamsudin.

Meanwhile, member of the Corruption Eradication Committee, Albertina Ho, said the trial of the alleged ethical violation would be conducted behind closed doors. This is in accordance with the Regulations of the Supervisory Board.

"The trial is closed but the verdict is open," he said.

The ethics trial against Lili must be terminated for 60 days. "There is a time in the Dewas Rules," said Albertina.

Lili was again reported to the KPK Council for allegedly receiving hotel accommodation facilities and tickets to watch the 2022 MotoGP race at the Mandalika International Circuit, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), from PT Pertamina (Persero).

In dealing with the alleged receipt, the KPK has collected materials and information from related parties, including the state-owned company. President Director of PT Pertamina (Persero) Nicke Widyawati has also been examined some time ago and provided additional information in writing.

Not only that, the KPK Council has also asked related parties to bring proof of booking accommodation at Amber Lombok Beach Resort and Mandalika MotoGP tickets at the Grandstand Premium Zone A-Red.
