Following up on the receipt of the audit results, investigators are currently filing a case belonging to the suspect with the initials PT. "When the file has been completed, it will be continued to stage one, the transfer of files to the research prosecutor," he said.

Regarding the results of the audit of state losses received by the prosecutor's office, Inspector of the NTB Inspectorate Ibnu Salim confirmed that this came from his side.

"Yes, the audit has been completed and we have submitted it to the prosecutor's office," said Ibnu.

The suspect with the initials PT in this case is the Chairman of KONI Dompu for the 2017 to 2021 period.

Investigators named PT as a suspect by applying the allegations of Article 2 paragraph (1) and/or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law no. 20 of 2001.

With this determination, investigators detained PT at the Class IIA Mataram Prison.

During the investigation process, the prosecutor's office conducted a search. There are two locations, the Dompu Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) Office and the Dompu Education, Youth and Sports Office (Dikpora).

The search was led directly by the Coordinator for the Special Investigation Unit of the NTB Attorney General's Office, Burhanudin. A team from the NTB Prosecutor's Office came down accompanied by the Head of Intelligence at the time of the Dompu Kejari Intelligence Office, Indra Zulkarnain.

Several important documents related to the distribution of grant funds to KONI Dompu have been confiscated. The process of distributing grant funds known through BPKAD Dompu and Dikpora Dompu is the reason for the search.

Regarding the search that was carried out in mid-June 2022, investigators have included the results in the need for an audit by the inspectorate.

The alleged corruption case of grant funds relates to management in 2018-2021 for sports (sports) coaching and preparation for the NTB Provincial Sports Week (Porprov) in 2018.

There are allegations that the budget is being used not according to the designation. There are also purchases of items that are suspected to be fictitious. This allegation is corroborated by the absence of accountability reports on the use of the budget. The potential loss is estimated at IDR 3 billion.
