JAKARTA - The wife of former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming, Erwinda, did not comply with the summons of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) investigators. He was supposed to be questioned last Tuesday, July 19.

Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said that Erwinda would actually be questioned as a witness regarding the alleged bribery and gratification that allegedly ensnared Mardani H. Maming.

"Erwinda, the housewife was not present but (she gave, ed) confirmation to the investigative team regarding her absence," said Ali in a written statement, Wednesday, July 20.

In addition, another witness was also absent, namely Nur Fitriani Yoes Rachman. This housewife was absent and no reason was given to investigators.

Just like Erwinda, she was a witness for the alleged bribery and gratification case related to a mining business permit (IUP) in Tanah Bumbu Regency, South Kalimantan.

"Not present and without confirmation of his absence," said Ali.

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 Rp 89 billion in money in a trial for alleged bribery for 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 the report
