The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) found evidence related to the alleged corruption of fictitious investments in PT Taspen (Persero) which dragged the name of A.N.S. Kosasih as the main director of the inactive. Among them are documents to electronic evidence.

"From the results of the search, several documents or letters and electronic evidence were found related to transaction activities, investments in PT Taspen," said KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardika to reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Friday, August 2.

Tessa said the search was carried out on Wednesday, July 31. The place where investigators visit is the securities office in the Central Jakarta area.

As previously reported, the KPK decided to increase the status of handling allegations of corruption at PT Taspen (Persero) from an investigation to an investigation. Antonius NS Kosasih, who is the former president director, became a suspect in this case.

Kosasih has also been prevented from leaving the country for six months to facilitate the investigation of cases. This forced effort applies to Ekiawan Heri Primaryanto as President Director of Insight Investments Management.

As for this case, PT Taspen is suspected of making fictitious investments of up to Rp1 trillion. It is suspected that the funds were diverted in a number of forms such as stocks to sukuk.

(Investment, red) in any form. This is in the form of one of them, indeed as stated earlier. If I'm not mistaken, there are three types of businesses, yes, three types of models. There are stocks, sukuk, and others," said KPK Investigation Director Asep Guntur Rahayu to reporters as quoted from the KPK YouTube, Monday, July 8.

"This (IDR 1 trillion fund, ed) is used for its investment," he continued.
