JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the President Director of PT Loco Montrado, Siman Bahar alias Bing Kin Phin did not fulfill the investigator's summons on Thursday, October 17.

Bing Kin Phin was originally investigated today regarding the alleged corruption in the processing of metal anodes at PT Aneka Tambang (Persero) Tbk. and PT Loco Montrado in 2017.

"SB was unable to attend due to illness," said KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardika to reporters, Friday, October 18.

Tessa said rescheduling would be carried out on SB. However, he has not specified the exact time.

The KPK reminded Siman Bahar to cooperate in fulfilling the investigator's summons. His statement is needed to resolve allegations of corruption that are being investigated.

In this case, the anti-corruption commission has named two people as suspects in this case. They are Siman Bahar and Dodi Marnali (DM) as General Manager of the PT Antam Processing Unit.

Dodi has now been sentenced to 6.5 years in prison. Meanwhile, Siman Bahar has not been detained due to his health condition.

The status of the suspect Siman Bahar had died after the South Jakarta Court Judge (PN Jaksel) granted the pretrial lawsuit he filed. However, the KPK again named Siman Bahar as a suspect for the second time.
