KUPANG - The investigation team of the Sikka District Attorney (Kejari), East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), confiscated 185 documents related to the misuse of COVID-19 emergency response funds at the Sikka Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) office.

Head of the District Attorney's Office (Kajari) Sikka Fahmi said the hundreds of documents were obtained from the results of a search at the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) office.

"We are determined to consistently thoroughly investigate the alleged criminal act of misuse of funds for the 2021 COVID-19 unexpected expenditure at BPBD Sikka," said Fahmi in Kupang, as reported by ANTARA, Friday, July 22.

The Sikka Kejari investigator team assessed that the hundreds of documents were confiscated because they were related to allegations of corruption in the procurement of basic funeral needs in the context of handling the COVID-19 emergency response for patients, support officers, and security at quarantine places.

In addition, the document is also related to the procurement of drinking needs, logistics, and equipment in handling the COVID-19 pandemic emergency response at quarantine locations as well as the procurement of basic necessities for the community affected by natural disasters at the BPBD of Sikka Regency for the 2021 Fiscal Year.

He said that there were about four rooms in BPKAD Sikka which were sealed for document inspection related to emergency response funds at BPBD. Fahmi added that his party would thoroughly investigate the case and reveal who was behind the case.
