JAKARTA - The Supervisory Board of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the investigation into the alleged receipt of accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP by former KPK Deputy Chair Lili Pintauli Siregar would be handed over to the KPK leadership.

The chairman of the Corruption Eradication Committee, Tumpak Hatorangan Panggabean, said that his party did not have the authority to investigate the alleged receipt. The reason is that their duties and functions are only limited to ethical issues for KPK personnel.

"That is not the authority of the Supervisory Board," Tumpak told reporters at the ACLC building, Rasuna Said, South Jakarta, Monday, July 11.

Tumpak ensured that they would hand over their determination regarding Lili's alleged ethic to Firli Bahuri and other leaders. Now, the decision to continue or not this allegation to the criminal realm is in their hands.

"After this we will convey to the leadership. Whether later the leadership will follow up and so on, that is not our authority," said the former KPK leader.

Lili Pintauli was reported to the KPK Supervisory Board for allegedly receiving accommodation and tickets for the Mandalika MotoGP from PT Pertamina (Persero). In conducting the investigation, Tumpak et al have asked for information from various parties including the President Director of PT Pertamina (Persero).

However, this trial was declared invalid because Lili resigned from her position. He submitted a letter on June 30 to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi).

After accepting Lili's resignation, Jokowi then issued Presidential Decree No. 71/P/2022 concerning the Dismissal of the KPK Leaders.
