As previously reported, the KPK said there were three clusters of alleged corruption in the Ministry of Agriculture. The details are extortion related to positions, gratuities, and money laundering (TPPU).
In investigating this case, investigators have conducted searches in a number of places. At the official residence of Minister Syahrul Yasin Limpo, for example, investigators found Rp30 billion in cash consisting of rupiah denominations and foreign currencies and firearms.
Then, the search was continued at the Ministry of Agriculture's office. As a result, documents related to the corruption case were found.
Most recently, investigators also visited Hatta's house in Jagakarsa, South Jakarta. From the forced effort, Rp400 million was found.
Next, investigators also found an Audi A6 branded sedan that was confiscated by investigators. This car was obtained by investigators when they searched Syahrul's house in Makassar.
The findings obtained from the search are now being analyzed and confiscation will be carried out. Meanwhile, the findings of firearms were handed over to the police for follow-up.
