The Bengkulu High Prosecutor's Special Criminal Investigation Team (Pidsus) stated that the suspect Muklasin, who had been on the wanted list (DPO) related to the alleged corruption case in the construction of a hotmix road in Seluma Regency, Bengkulu, had died in Jepara City, Central Java.

"It is true that we have received information that the suspect in the alleged corruption case of the Ampar Gading hotmix road in Seluma Regency has died," said Head of Special Investigation Unit of the Bengkulu Attorney General's Office, Danang Prasetyo, as reported by ANTARA, Monday, November 6.

The Bengkulu Prosecutor's Office team will go to Jepara City, Central Java Province, to ensure the information and take documentation of the suspect's grave and death certificate.

"For the time being, with the death of Muklasin, the legal process for the person concerned will be terminated by law," he said.

Muklasin was named a suspect in connection with the alleged corruption case in the construction of the hotmix Ampar Gading road in Seluma Regency in 2014 with a state loss of more than Rp. 2 billion.

In investigating the case, there were three convicts who had received permanent legal force from the Bengkulu Corruption District Court, namely Tri Deska Rusma as the power user of the budget (KPA), then Jamaludin as treasurer and Antariksa as the technical implementing officer of the activity (PPTK).

Meanwhile, the suspect Muklasin as Director of PT Jaya Sakti Contractsi was not present without information when summoned by the Bengkulu Prosecutor's Investigation Team until he was declared a DPO in 2016.

Furthermore, at the end of 2018, the whereabouts of the suspect Muklasin were tracked down in Jepara City, Central Java, in a state of stroke, so that the Bengkulu Attorney General's Office of Special Investigation Team could not make arrests.

For the criminal case, based on the results of the audit by the Financial Audit Agency (BPK) No. 05/LHP/8/BKL/5/2016 dated May 24, 2016, the state suffered a loss of more than Rp. 2 billion.
