JAKARTA - Deputy II of the Organization, Cadreization and Membership Development Agency (BPOKK) of the Democratic Party, Jemmy Setiawan, admitted that he received Rp50 million from the inactive North Penajam Paser Regent Abdul Gafur Mas'ud.

Giving is done through the driver and put in a red colored pencil box.

This confession was conveyed by Jemmy in the trial held at the Samarinda Corruption Court today, Wednesday, July 20. He was presented as a witness related to the alleged bribery in the procurement of goods and services in North Penajam Paser Regency.

The giving of money took place at night, but Jemmy did not specify the exact time. However, he remembers the money was given to driver Abdul Gafur.

"I just remembered that when I was contacted, the point was this, sir, in the message, 'permission, sir, to meet, to meet. There is a message from Pak Gafur'," said Jemmy during a trial at the Samarinda Corruption Court, Wednesday, July 20.

The invitation was then rejected by Jemmy. However, Abdul Gafur's driver kept contacting him, which he then agreed to meet at his house.

"That's where he (said, ed), 'there is a deposit from Pak Gafur. I hope you get well soon'. That's all," he said.

"What is the deposit, sir, can you explain?" asked the KPK prosecutor.

"Money, sir. Cash," said Jemmy.

"How many?" asked the KPK prosecutor again.

"Rp 50 million, sir. As far as I remember. As far as I remember, Rp 50 million," he said.

Jemmy denied that there was a Rp100 million gift. He emphasized that the money he received was only Rp. 50 million.

"I said it was impossible, sir, Rp. 100 million. Because it was given in a pencil case," he said.

"The red pencil box and I remember, I didn't open it. I said thank you and I immediately handed it over to my people. Because I was there (at home, red) there was a guest, sir," continued Jemmy.

Jemmy said the gift took place five months before the Regional Conference (Musda) of the East Kalimantan Democratic Party. However, he denied this gift was related.

The reason is that he received consultations not only from Abdul Gafur but from all parties. Including, DPD candidates who will advance in the East Kalimantan Democratic Party Musda.

"All candidates, sir, all candidates are consulted. One question is asked, what are the administrative requirements, what must be collected. It's BPOKK who understands, sir," he said.

Jemmy confirmed that the money was used to pay for the doctor. The reason, he was sick at the time.

"I've already explained. I'm sick, sir," he said.

"Yes, I am for my needs, sir. My needs," concluded Jemmy.
