JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said coordination of the handling of alleged corruption in the provision of credit facilities for the Indonesian Export Financing Agency (LPEI) with the Attorney General's Office was continuously carried out. Each party has appointed the person in charge.

This was conveyed by the Director of Investigation of the KPK Asep Guntur after holding a meeting with the Attorney General's Office today, Thursday, August 15. It was decided in this activity that the handling of the case was fully handed over to the anti-corruption commission.

"In the future and starting today, we will also continue to coordinate with colleagues at the Attorney General's Office," Asep told reporters at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta.

"Earlier, we agreed to agree to appoint each PIC from the KPK, KPK investigators and from investigators at the Attorney General's Office," he continued.

This coordination is carried out so that each finding can be thoroughly investigated. "In the future, we also don't know the progress, here. If it turns out that there will be another slice, we will coordinate and we can solve it. The point is that the handling of this case can run more effectively and efficiently because there is no more overlap," said Asep.

Previously reported, the KPK named seven suspects in a corruption case in providing credit facilities from the Indonesian Export Financing Agency (LPEI). Of these, there are state administrators and the private sector who are entangled.

In addition, the anti-corruption commission also asked the Directorate General of Immigration of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham) to prevent seven people from leaving the country for six months. This request is based on Decree Number 981 of 2024.
