KENDARI - Mantan Wali Kota Kendari Sulkarnain Kadir menghadiri sidang di Pengadilan Negeri (PN) Tipikor Kendari sebagai saksi dalam perkara dugaan tindak pidana gratifikasi PT. Midi Utama Indonesia (MUI).
In his testimony, Sulkarnain, who also holds the status of a suspect, acknowledged the making of a Draft Budget (RAB) for colorful Villages in Petoaha Village and Bungkutoko Village, Kendari City at his orders.
Then the Acting Head (Plt) of the Kendari City Housing and Settlement Service, who was then held by the defendant Ridwansyah Taridala, made the RAB with a value of Rp. 300 million and was immediately signed.
"He (Ridwansyah Taridala) handed over the first RAB which was valued at Rp. 300 million, then I asked for it to be repaired because there were several additional items such as work wages, so I asked for it to be revised," said Sulkarnain while attending a trial in court as reported by Antara, Wednesday, August 23.
Sulkranain admitted that he held a meeting with PT MUI in Jakarta and at the Kendari Mayor's (Rujab) office related to the licensing request process for PT MUI to open outlets in Kendari City.
However, he denied that there was a request for the construction of a local outlet called Anoa Mart and a request for financial assistance to finance the colorful Kampung program.
At that time, said Sulkranain, he only accepted the submission and offer from PT MUI that they had a different concept from the establishment of other modern outlets. Then Sulkarnain asked PT MUI to show the concept.
Sulkarnain said that he was afraid that when the permit for the national outlet "A" to open outlets in Kendari City would threaten the business continuity of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
"I ask to show you what the concept looks like and examples of implementation in other regions that can accommodate MSMEs and of course do not harm MSMEs for the existence of Alfamidi," he said.
In addition, Sulkarnain also admitted that he did not know about the money received by Syarif Maulana amounting to Rp700 million from the Zakat Infak and Shadaqah Muhammadiyah (Lazimu) institutions.
Then the Rp50 million money that was sent by the defendant Syarif Maulana to the PKS account with the statement "Milad Sulkarnain Kadir" was also unknown, including that he never ordered the defendant Syarif Maulana to take care of Anoa Mart's licensing and A's national outlet.
"I also never ordered it to be handed over to Syarif Maulana and the share of five percent did not know at all," he said.
