JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) opens the opportunity to submit the investigation into the bribery case of the owner of PT Duta Palma Group, Surya Darmadi to the Attorney General's Office. The KPK does not want there to be an overlapping investigation among law enforcers.
KPK Deputy for Enforcement and Execution Karyoto said the opportunity for submission was wide open. Moreover, Deputy Chairperson of the KPK Alexander Marwata also has the same opinion.
"Pak Alex also agrees, it is better to delegate, which one is more comprehensive, I think the prosecutor is more comprehensive," said Karyoto in Jakarta, Friday, September 9.
Karyoto believes that by submitting it, Surya Darmadi's bribery case can be investigated more quickly. "For proof of bribery, it's simpler," he said.
However, the opportunity for this case is still only a discourse. "We are still coordinating, we will coordinate that direction (delegating, ed)," said Karyoto.
Previously, Surya Darmadi was a fugitive from the KPK. He is a suspect in giving bribes related to the transfer of forest function which is the development of the case that ensnared former Riau Governor Annas Ma'amun.
Meanwhile at the Attorney General's Office, the case against Surya has entered the trial stage. The entrepreneur was charged with enriching himself, harming the state, and the state economy of up to Rp86.54 trillion.
Surya is suspected of enriching himself or another person or the corporation amounting to Rp7.59 trillion and USD7.88 million which is currently converted to rupiah to Rp117.60 billion.
He was then suspected of harming state finances or the country's economy. The total reached Rp4.79 trillion and USD 7.88 million which was converted to rupiah is currently Rp117.60 billion.
Furthermore, Surya was charged with harming the state economy worth Rp. 73.92 trillion. This figure was obtained from reports from research institutions and economic inauguration and businesses of the economic faculty and businesses of Gajah Mada University on August 24, 2022.
