JAKARTA - Businessman and the younger brother of Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto, Hashim Djojohadikusumo, said that his party has no relationship with a company called PT Aero Citra Kargo (ACK).

As is well known, PT Aero Citra Kargo (ACK), a company suspected of monopolizing the shipment of lobster seeds abroad.

"I want to emphasize that our family, including Pak Prabowo, has nothing to do with the company," he said at a press conference at Jetski Cafe, Pantai Mutiara, Penjaringan, North Jakarta, Friday, December 4.

Furthermore, he also admitted that he only found out about the company some time ago. Hashim admitted that he was greatly disadvantaged by the existence of the company and its perpetrators.

"That there is a company called ACK, I just found out last Thursday that there was a cargo permit company ACK. I only found out one day later that there was a permit company. I also just found out on Thursday. I convey this so that there is clarity. We feel sacrificed," he explained.

The chairman of the Gerinda Party, Prabowo Subianto, admitted that he was disappointed with what the former Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Edhy Prabowo, had done. This disappointment is because Edhy stumbled on a case of alleged lobster seed export license bribery.

Prabowo's disappointment was conveyed by his younger brother, Hashim Djojohadikusumo. "He (Prabowo) is very disappointed with the child he adopted from the sewer, 25 years ago," said Hashim.

According to Hashim, he and his family, including Prabowo, really don't like corruption. Because, this can harm the name of his extended family, considering that Prabowo's family is part of Indonesia's freedom fighters.

"Prabowo was very angry, very disappointed. Feeling betrayed. To be honest, he told me in English. I pick him up from the gutter. And this what he dose to me. (I took him from the gutter and this is what he did. to me), "he said.

Previously, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) began scheduling examination of witnesses to investigate the alleged bribery case related to the lobster seed export license that dragged the former Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Edhy Prabowo.

KPK investigators also summoned two high-ranking officials from PT Aero Citra Kargo (PT ACK) to extract their testimony as witnesses today. The two PT ACK officials, namely, Achmad Bachtiar as Commissioner of PT ACK and Amri who served as President Director of PT ACK.

Both statements will be corrected as witnesses to complete the investigation file for the suspect Edhy Prabowo.
