JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said that the younger brother of former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming, Rois Sunandar Maming, refused to be investigated by investigators. The reason is that he is still waiting for the pretrial process that is taking place at the South Jakarta District Court.

Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri said Rois should be questioned today, Monday, July 11 at the KPK Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

"Rois Sunandar, Director of PT Batulicin Six Sembilan Pelabuhan was not present and reasoned that he had followed the pretrial process first," Ali told reporters, Monday, July 11.

In addition, other witnesses such as Head of Minerba Business Section of the Department of Energy and Mineral Resources of South Kalimantan Province, Endarto; private sector, Jimmy Budhijanto; and former Director of PT Trans Surya Perkasa (PT TSP), Muhammad Aliansyah also did not attend.

Ali detailed that Endarto was not present because he was on a pilgrimage. Meanwhile Jimmy, who is a private party, was unable to attend because he was in self-isolation.

Meanwhile, Muhammad Aliansyah was not present without explanation. "The investigative team will immediately reschedule and the KPK urges the witnesses to be cooperative in attending the next summons," he said.

As previously reported, Mardani was named a suspect after being prevented from going abroad by the Directorate General of Immigration at the request of the KPK. Before being named a suspect, the General Treasurer of the Nahdlaltul Ulama Executive Board (PBNU) was also investigated.

However, 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.
