JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has examined the Director of PT Rohijireh Mulia, Ferdinand Nugraha Iskandar as a witness on Monday, September 9. His information is needed to investigate the crime of money laundering (TPPU) that ensnared former North Maluku Governor Abdul Gani Kasuba.

"The examination (conducted, red) at the KPK's Red and White Building on behalf of the FNI as Director of PT Rohijireh Mulia," said KPK Spokesperson Tessa Mahardika to reporters, Tuesday, September 10.

Tessa said the FNI was being questioned by a number of things related to the allegations that ensnared Abdul. One of them is about mining in the North Maluku region.

"Witnesses attended by investigators to explore the management of the mine," he said.

Previously reported, the KPK named the inactive North Maluku Governor Abdul Gani Kasuba as a suspect in the alleged crime of money laundering (TPPU). He is suspected of washing up to Rp100 billion.

The determination of this suspect was carried out as the development of the alleged bribery of goods and services procurement projects as well as the granting of permits within the North Maluku Provincial Government. Abdul Gani has been detained along with five other suspects since December 20 after being caught in a hand arrest operation (OTT).

In addition, the KPK named Abdul Gani Kasuba's confidant, Muhaimin Syarif, who is the former chairman of the North Maluku Gerindra Party DPD as a suspect.

He is suspected of bribing former North Maluku Governor Abdul Gani Kasuba in the amount of Rp. 7 billion for the management of the Production Operation IUP to the proposal for the determination of the mining business permit area (WIUP) to the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

Then this gift is also related to projects within the North Maluku Provincial Government. The bribe was given by Muhaimin Syarif directly to Abdul Gani or through aides and through banking transactions.
