JAKARTA - Attorney General of the Republic of Indonesia, ST Burhanuddin, said that state losses in the alleged corruption case of PT Asabri reached 17 trillion. This refers to data resulting from the investigation by the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP).
"We have obtained the investigation results from the BPKP, which are estimated to cost around Rp. 17 trillion," Burhanuddin told reporters, Tuesday, December 22.
Burhanuddin said that the state losses caused by the PT Asabri corruption case were greater than that of PT Asuransi Jiwasraya. This is because the case that identified several suspects, one of which was Benny Tjokro, caused a state loss of Rp. 16.8 trillion.
"So maybe a little more than Jiwasraya," he said.
In addition, BUMN Minister Erick Thohir said that the audit results regarding losses could make it easier to map indications of corruption. Moreover, the government remains committed to eliminating corruption.
"What is important is that we map (map) this corruption and its assets. Because we still have to maintain continuity with Asabri's running," said Erick.
Previously, the alleged corruption case was based on three police reports (LP) received at the Directorate of Special Economic Crimes at Bareskrim Polri and the Special Crime Directorate of Polda Metro Jaya.
The first report is registered with number A077 / II / 2020 / Dittipidekses dated February 7, 2020. In this report, investigators have examined 43 witnesses and confiscated a number of financial reports.
Then, LP number A0175 / III / Bareskrim dated March 24, 2020 and has been under investigation since April 22, 2020. Finally, the report registered at Polda was number 63 / I / 25/2020 SPKT / PMJ on January 15, 2020.
It's just that, in handling this case it has been decided if the Polda Metro Jaya investigators will handle it first. This is because the first reporting was carried out at Polda Metro Jaya.
The investigation process is still waiting for the results of the investigation by the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK). Later, from the results of the examination, the next steps will be determined.
In this case, the investigator suspects that there is a violation in Article 2 paragraph (1) and / or Article 3 of Law number 21 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crimes as amended in Law number 8 of 2012 in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code.
