JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to recall the Secretary of the Planning and Development Agency of the Ministry of Manpower I Nyoman Darmanta. This effort was made because he was absent from the investigator's summons on Tuesday, September 19. "The witness was not present, I Nyoman Darmanta, a civil servant of the Ministry of Manpower, ” said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Wednesday, September 20. The recall, continued Ali, also applies to two other witnesses who are also civil servants of the Ministry of Manpower. They are Agus Widaryanto and Yurnalis Chan. However, the time for the summons has not been detailed. "The witnesses were not present and were rescheduled immediately," he said. As previously reported, the KPK has announced that three suspects have been named in the case of procuring the protection system. Although not yet detailed, Nyoman is said to be entangled with the former Director General of the Ministry of Manpower who is now the Chairman of the Bali PKB DPW, Reyna Usman and a private sector. In investigating this case, several witnesses have been examined. One of them is the former Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Muhaimin Iskandar or Cak Imin who served for the 2009-2014 period on Thursday, September 7. The value of the information system procurement project that is suspected to be the result of the perpetrators reached around Rp. 20 billion. Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata said that this system was allegedly corrupted until it could not be used to monitor migrant workers.

“ Only computers can be used to type and so on. However, the system itself is not working, ” he told reporters in Jakarta, Thursday, August 24.
