JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned member of the Indonesian House of Representatives Lasmi Indaryani today, Tuesday, August 30. The examination was carried out related to the alleged money laundering (TPPU) committed by his father, namely the former Banjarnegara Regent Budhi Sarwono. "The investigation was carried out by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Office," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Tuesday, August 30. Lasmi is expected to fulfill the investigator's summons. His statement is needed to investigate the alleged money laundering committed by Budhi Sarwono. Previously, the KPK had named Budhi as a suspect in the alleged crime of money laundering (TPPU). This determination was made as a development of the bribery and gratification cases that ensnared him. In the effort to launder money, the anti-corruption commission suspected that there were efforts to hide or disguise the origins of assets sourced from corruption. One way is by spending in the form of various assets, either moving or not moving. In addition, the KPK has also confiscated assets worth Rp. 10 billion which allegedly belonged to the suspect Budhi in the money laundering case. Meanwhile, in the bribery case, Budhi was sentenced to eight years in prison by the Corruption Court (Tipikor) Semarang, Central Java. He was also sentenced to an additional fine of Rp700 million which if not paid would be replaced with 6 months in prison.
