JAKARTA - The chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, said that the purchase of land for a DP house of Rp. 0 in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon, East Jakarta, which was suspected of being corrupted, was the decision of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan.

Prasetyo said this was stipulated in the Governor's Decree (Kepgub) Number 1684 of 2019 concerning Disbursement of Regional Capital Participation (PMD) in the Regional Development Company for Sarana Jaya for the 2019 Fiscal Year.

"The governor's decree decided to disburse PMD for Sarana Jaya in the 2019 budget year amounting to Rp. 800 billion. The Rp. 800 billion was then used to buy land to be used in the 0 rupiah DP housing program," Prasetyo said in his statement, Thursday, March 18.

Prasetyo continued, the Kepgub also explained that the board of directors of Sarana Jaya was obliged to report the results of the land purchase to Anies after receiving the PMD.

It was also stated that the Board of Directors of Sarana Jaya must submit a report on the absorption of PMD usage periodically every 3 months to the Governor with copies to the Inspector, Head of the Regional Finance Agency and Head of the Regional Owned Enterprise Development Agency.

"So Governor Anies Baswedan should have known about this problem," said Prasetyo.

Previously reported, the KPK is currently investigating a corruption case related to land acquisition in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon Village, Cipayung, East Jakarta. This land will later be used to build houses with a down payment or DP Rp. 0, which is a program of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan.

Although it has not been announced, based on the summons for a witness, in this case there are four suspects who have been named by the KPK. The first suspect is the Director of the Regional Public Company Pembangunan Sarana Jaya, Yoory Corneles, who has now been retired from his position.

Apart from that, the KPK also named two private parties, Anja Runtuwene, and Tommy Ardian as suspects. Not only that, the KPK also determined a corporation, namely PT Adonara Propertindo.

KPK Opens the opportunity to summon Anies Baswedan to ask for information on this case. In addition, the KPK will also have the opportunity to examine the Chairperson of the DKI Jakarta Provincial DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi.

Acting KPK spokesman for the field of prosecution Ali Fikri said that whoever is suspected of knowing the series of incidents of suspected corruption will certainly be summoned. No exception Prasetyo, who also serves as Chairman of the DKI DPRD Budget Agency.

"What we call during the examination as witnesses are those who are suspected of knowing the series of events in the case so that it becomes clearer that the alleged actions of the suspects in this case are made clear," said Acting KPK spokesman Ali Fikri.

However, the summons are of course based on the need for investigators to investigate the alleged corruption. "Summoning someone as a witness in case settlement is certainly because there is a need for investigation," he said.

"We will convey further developments regarding who will be summoned as witnesses," added Ali.
