JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has named the former President Director (Managing Director) of PT Taspen, Antonius NS Kosasih as a suspect in the fictitious investment case of the state-owned company.

Antonius' status is known from the summons of the Director of Planning and Actuaria PT Taspen, Dodi Susanto as a witness. KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardika said the examination was carried out today, Wednesday, June 19.

"(Checked at, red) the KPK office," said Tessa in a written statement, Wednesday, June 19.

Dodi's summons has been sent since last Wednesday, June 12. He is expected to be present to fulfill the investigator's summons.

The anti-corruption commission has not yet officially announced the determination of the suspect. Usually, the announcement is carried out in conjunction with forced detention efforts.

Previously, the Director of KPK Investigation Asep Guntur Rahayu had also agreed to the status of a Kosasih suspect.

Hal itu disampaikan saat Kosasih dimintai keterangan sebagai saksi pada Selasa, 7 Juni. Tadi juga salah satu (pihak, red) dipanggil, tersangkanya, ujar Asep kepada wartawan.

Previously reported, the KPK decided to increase allegations of corruption at PT Taspen (Persero) from investigation to investigation. Requests for prevention abroad against related parties in this case have been made.

There are two people who have been prevented from leaving the country to facilitate investigations. They are Antonius NS Kosasih, who has now been disabled from his position and Ekiawan Heri Primaryanto as President Director of Insight Investments Management.
