JAKARTA - Former Head of Purwakarta Customs and Excise Rahmady Effendy Hutahaean answered the summons for the Deputy for Prevention and Monitoring of the KPK today, Monday, May 20. The state administrator's wealth report (LHKPN) will be investigated because it is considered odd.

"It's arrived (around, red) at 08.30 WIB earlier," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri when confirmed, Monday, May 20.

Ali has not detailed about the clarification. Ali only said that the LHKPN Team had scheduled an examination of Rahmady.

"It will be updated later. According to the agenda (LHKPN examination, ed) at 09.00 WIB at the KPK's Red and White Building," he said.

Head of Customs and Excise Purwakarta Rahmady Effendy Hutahaean is in the public spotlight because he is suspected of involving his family in carrying out official affairs. He was later removed from his position after undergoing an internal examination.

In addition, Rahmady was also reported to the KPK some time ago by Andreas, who is an advocate from the Law Office of Eternity Global Lawfirm. He questioned Rahmady's LHKPN in the report.

The reason is that Rahmady's wife, Margaret Chritsina, gave a loan of IDR 7 billion to Wijanto Tirtasana, who is Andreas' client. This incident occurred in 2017.

The loan requirement is to make Margaret the main commissioner and shareholder by 40 percent. However, there was a threat from Rahmady and his wife against Wijanto so that Andreas as legal counsel traced it and knew the official's wealth.
