NTB - The West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) has upgraded the status of the investigation stage of corruption in the assets of the West Lombok Regency Government (Pemkab) in the form of land used as a location for the construction of a Lombok City Center (LCC) mall or shopping center.

"The handling of the LCC asset case has entered into investigation," said NTB Attorney General's spokesman Efrien Saputera in Mataram, NTB, Thursday, August 15, confiscated by Antara.

He emphasized that the increase in the status of case handling to the investigation stage was based on the results of the title. Investigators have found indications of state financial losses.

"So, there are indications of losses based on exposure results with auditors," he said.

Dalam tahap penyidikan ini Efrien menegaskan bahwa penyidik sedang melakukan pencaluman kerugian keuangan negara berdasarkan tindak lanjut hasil exposure. Pemeriksaan saksi kembali diagendakan.

"Just waiting for the results (of the audit), the witness examination will run," he said.

The auditor agency that assists investigators in calculating the state's financial losses is from the NTB Representative Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP).

In the investigation process, the prosecutor's office has questioned a number of former officials who are aware of the cooperation contract in managing assets belonging to the West Lombok Regency Government.

The parties who had attended the prosecutor included former West Lombok Regent Zaini Arony and former West Lombok BPKAD Head Burhanuddin.

The request for information against the two former officials took place in mid-November 2023. Zaini admitted that he regretted the fate of the now abandoned assets.

With this case, Zaini hopes that the land on which there is a former magnificent shopping center building can be reused and become one of the sources of regional income.

The case of LCC assets has previously advanced to the court table based on the results of the investigation by the NTB Prosecutor's Office. In this case, there were two officials from the West Lombok Regional Public Company (Perusda), namely PT Patuh Patju (Tripat) who were dragged into the crime.

Both are former Director of PT Tripat Lalu Azril Sopandi and former Finance Manager of PT Tripat Abdurrazak.

Based on the criminal verdict handed down, both were found guilty of committing corruption together, causing state losses.

In consideration of the verdict, the Panel of Judges at the Mataram District Court outlined the process of capital participation and replacement of the building that was built in 2014.

When Azril Sopandi still held the position of Director of PT Tripat, the regional company received capital participation from the West Lombok Regional Government in the form of strategic land on Jalan Raya Mataram-Sikur, Gerimak Village, Narmada District covering an area of 8.4 hectares.

The land then became PT Tripat's capital to build cooperation in LCC management, in this case private parties from PTbaniss, a subsidiary of Lippo Group.

4.8 hectares of land from a total of 8.4 hectares, then used as collateral by PTbaniss to PT Bank Sinarmas. From this collateral, PTbanis in 2013 received a loan of Rp264 billion.

The repayment of capital loans with collateral assets belonging to the West Lombok Regency Government is reported to have no deadline for PT Bank Sinarmas.

Dalam proses perjanjian kerja sama antara PT Tripat dengan PTbanis, muncul keterlibatan mantan Bupati Lombok Barat Zaini Arony, yang turut serta membuatkan tandasan perjanjian.
