JAKARTA - The Attorney General's Office has named eight people as suspects in the alleged corruption case of the Indonesian Armed Forces Social Insurance (Asabri). Two of them are former CEOs of PT Asabri.
Two former directors of PT Asabri who were named as suspects, namely Major General (ret) Adam Rachmat Damiri alias ARD and Sonny Widjaja alias SW. Meanwhile, the other 6 suspects, namely, BE as former finance director of PT Asabri, HS as Director of PT Asabri, WS as Head of Investment Division of PT Asabri, LP Director of PT Prima Network and BT and HH (Private).
Head of the Legal Information Center (Kapuspenkum) AGO Leonard Eben Ezer Simanjuntak said the ARD suspect served as President Director for the 2011-2016 period.
In the 2012-2016 period, he made an agreement with BT to regulate and control transactions and investments in Asabri's shares.
"As well as Asabri's mutual funds. This is through BT," Leonard told reporters, Monday, February 1.
Furthermore, SW as Managing Director of Asabri from March 2016 to July 2020. According to Leonard, from 2016 to 2019, SW made an agreement with HH to regulate and control PT Asabri's transactions, stock investment and mutual funds.
"So LP, BT and HH, as private parties, manage stock and mutual fund transactions in PT Asabri's portfolio by entering their shares at a price that has been manipulated into PT Asabri's portfolio," said Leonard.
Well, since 2012-2019, the Director of Investment and Finance and the Head of Investment Division of PT Asabri have collaborated to make agreements with outsiders who are not Asabri's investment consultants or investment management (HH, BTS and LP).
The agreement, continued Leonard, was to buy or exchange shares in PT Asabri's portfolio with shares owned by HS BTS and LP. "Of course, the price has been manipulated to be high. With the aim that Asabri's portfolio performance looks as if it is good," he explained.
After the shares become the property of PT Asabri, the shares are again transacted or controlled by HH, BTS and LP based on a mutual agreement with the Asabri Directors.
"It is as if the shares are of high value and liquid. In fact, the transactions carried out are only fake and benefit HH, BTS and LP, and are detrimental to PT Asabri's investment or finance. The shares are also sold in the portfolio at a price below," said Leonard.
"So all Asabri investment activities in 2012-2019 were not controlled by Asabri but were fully controlled by HH, BTS and LP," said Leonard.
This alleged corruption case occurred during 2012 to 2019, PT. Asabri has worked with several parties to regulate and control Asabri's investment fund in share purchase investment of Rp. 10 trillion through affiliated parties and investment in mutual funds of Rp. 13 trillion.
This was done through several investment management companies (MI) in a way that deviated from the provisions of the prevailing laws and regulations. The act is suspected to have resulted in state financial losses as stipulated in the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crimes.
