JAKARTA - The suspect in the alleged bribery and mining license gratification, Mardani H. Maming, underwent an initial examination after being detained by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), Wednesday, August 3. The former Regent of Tanah Bumbu was questioned as a suspect.

"Currently, the suspect is on the 2nd floor of the KPK's Red and White Building," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, told reporters.

Ali said the investigation team would immediately examine Mardani. "The development of the examination material will be conveyed," he said.

Meanwhile, Mardani seemed to arrive at the Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta at around 09.32 WIB. He was seen wearing a white shirt with an orange vest for KPK prisoners.

His hands appeared to be in iron cuffs. He didn't say anything before entering the building.

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named Mardani a suspect in the alleged bribery and gratification of a mining business permit in Tanah Bumbu Regency. He was named the suspect as the recipient, while the giver, Hendry Soetio, who was the controller of PT Prolindo Cipta Nusantara (PCN) had died.
