JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is investigating the receipt of money made by former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming through a mining company he made. This step was carried out by examining a witness on Tuesday, August 9 yesterday.
Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said the witness being questioned was a housewife named Eka Risnawati. The examination was carried out at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.
"The attendance and confirmation related to, among other things, the witness' knowledge of the alleged flow of a sum of money received by suspect MM from the mining company he formed," Ali told reporters in his written statement, Wednesday, August 10.
It was not specified how much money the KPK managed to detect. However, this information will later strengthen Mardani's actions, which are suspected of receiving bribes and gratuities for mining business permits (IUP) in Tanah Bumbu Regency.
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named Mardani a suspect in the alleged bribery and gratification of mining business licenses in Tanah Bumbu Regency.

Despite his death, the KPK confirmed that investigators had received evidence related to Mardani's acceptance. He is believed to have earned money from Hendry from 2014 to 2020.
