INDRAMAYU - The District Attorney's Office (Kejari) Indramayu, West Java, named the former Head of the Indramayu Culture and Tourism Office (Kadisbudpar) with the initials C as a suspect in the corruption case in the construction of an artificial waterfall tourist attraction in the area.

Kasi Intel Kejari Indramayu Arie Prasetyo said the suspect was indicated to have committed corruption with a value of around Rp. 1.1 billion in the fifth phase of construction of artificial waterfall infrastructure in 2019.

"Suspect C is a former Kadisbudpar Indramayu as a budget user and a commitment maker official," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, July 4.

The appointment of the former Kadisbudpar Indramayu as a suspect, he said, was appropriate based on sufficient evidence, such as witness testimony, expert testimony and audit results of state losses.

In addition, the Indramayu Kejari Investigation Team succeeded in uncovering a violation of the law in the procurement of goods and services, which did not match the price and volume of the construction of the artificial waterfall tourist attraction.

"For the results of the investigation, two pieces of evidence were found, so the investigative team named C as a suspect. The results of the audit of the calculation of state losses (in this case) are approximately Rp. 1,189,871,205," he said.

Arie said suspect C had now been taken to the Class IIB Indramayu Detention Center, to undergo a 20-day detention process.

Former Kadisbudpar Indramayu is suspected of Articles 2 and 3 of the Corruption Act with a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a fine of Rp. 1 billion.

The Indramayu Kejari Investigation Team continues to carry out further investigations and developments in order to find other suspects in the corruption case.

"It is also possible that there are other suspects in this case, so please take time. Basically, the Indramayu Kejari is committed to law enforcement by resolving this case until it is finished," he said.
