JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has brought thousands of documents to prove the determination of former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming as a suspect in the alleged bribery and gratification of mining business permits (IUP) according to regulations.

This document will be presented before the pretrial hearing at the South Jakarta District Court (PN) today, Friday, July 22.

"The KPK law bureau team brought around 100 documents to prove that the KPK had sufficient preliminary evidence before setting the applicant as a suspect," said Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri in a written statement, Friday, July 22.

The KPK, continued Ali, will also explain the determination of the article in Mardani's suspect status. His party will ensure that the articles used to ensnare Mardani are consistent.

Furthermore, experts to explain crimes under the guise of financial transactions were also presented by the KPK. Expert testimony is believed to be important because the case that ensnared Mardani was a crime with a financial transaction mode.

"KPK believes that the judge will consider the explanations and information that the KPK has also submitted as the respondent, as a commitment to support in efforts to eradicate corruption in Indonesia through fair and procedural law enforcement," he said.

Previously, Mardani filed a pretrial lawsuit to the South Jakarta District Court after receiving a letter of naming the suspect from the KPK.

The Executive Board of Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) appointed members of the Governor's Team for the Acceleration of Development (TGUPP) DKI Jakarta Bambang Widjojanto and former Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkumham) Denny Indrayana as legal counsel.

The chairman of the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI) has been named a suspect in alleged bribery and gratification related to mining permits in Tanah Bumbu, Kalimantan. This corrupt practice allegedly occurred when Mardani was still in office.

The determination of Maming as a suspect by the KPK was initially known from the Directorate General of Immigration when confirming the existence of prevention abroad. Meanwhile, the KPK has not made an announcement because efforts to force detention have not been carried out.
