The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has examined the Secretary General of the DPR Indra Iskandar regarding the alleged corruption in the procurement of official house equipment for lawmakers. However, they did not want to elaborate on the examination.

"What is being investigated is related to the Secretary General of the DPR. So I can't convey it," said KPK Investigation Director Asep Guntur Rahayu at a press conference at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Wednesday, May 15.

"But the point is this is the case is procurement at the official residence. So surely the information we ask for is about the procurement," he continued.

Asep asked the public to be patient because the investigation into the alleged corruption in the procurement of equipment for official houses for members of the DPR RI was still ongoing. "In general, it's like that. So I'm sorry that I can't be more detailed because I entered the material," he said.

Similarly, Indra Iskandar was also reluctant to convey the material investigated by investigators after being examined for two hours until 12.00 WIB. He only said that he had given an explanation to investigators and the anti-corruption commission was believed to be working professionally.

"I believe that KPK investigators, the KPK will work professionally," Indra told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

As previously reported, the KPK revealed that it was investigating allegations of corruption at the Secretariat General of the DPR regarding the procurement of furniture or furniture at the official residence of lawmakers. It is suspected that the filling of the living room to the bedroom was rigged.

A total of seven people have been prevented from leaving the country in this case. From the information gathered, they are the Secretary General of the DPR Indra Iskandar; Head of the Rumjab Management Section of the DPR RI Hiphi Hidati; President Director of PT Daya Indah Dynamics, Tanti Nugroho; and Director of PT Dwitunggal Bangun Persada, Juanda Hasurungan Sidabutar.

Then it was also prevented by the Director of Operations of PT Avantgarde Production, Kibun Roni; Project Manager of PT Integra Indocabinet, Andrias Catur Prasetya; and Edwin Budiman who are private.

The modes that occur in this case are violations of several provisions related to the procurement of goods and services and budget inflations or mark-ups. The official residence whose filling is corrupted is thought to be located in Kalibata and Ulujami, South Jakarta.
