JAKARTA - After being named a suspect since December 2015, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) finally officially detained the former President Director (Dirut) of PT Pelindo II, Richard Joost Lino or RJ Lino.
He was detained after completing his examination as a suspect in the alleged corruption case in the procurement of three units of Quay Container Crane (QCC) at PT Pelindo II.
"Today we will deliver information related to the detention of the suspect RJL (RJ Lino), the former President Director of PT Pelindo II," said KPK Deputy Chairman Alexander Marwata during a detention press conference broadcast on the KPK RI YouTube account, Friday, March 26.
RJ Lino will then serve a prison term for the next 20 days at the KPK's Red and White House Detention Center (Rutan).
However, before that, he will first undergo independent isolation for 14 days at the KPK Detention Center Kavling C1 Branch. This must be done to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in detention centers.
"To fulfill the health protocol for the prevention of Covid-19 in the KPK detention center, independent isolation will be carried out for 14 days at the KPK branch detention center at the KPK ACLC building in Lot C1," he said.
In the process of investigating cases that have been carried out since 2015, the KPK has collected evidence in the form of statements from 74 witnesses and confiscated various documentary evidence related to the alleged corruption.
In this case, RJ Lino is alleged to have directly appointed a company from China, namely HuaDong Heavy Machinery (HDHM) in the procurement of three QCC units at PT Pelindo II.
For his actions, RJ Lino was then suspected of violating Article 2 paragraph (1) and / or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Amendments to Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) 1 of the Criminal Code.
