JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) began investigating bribery cases related to the termination of the Coal Mining Concession Agreement (PKP2B) of PT Asmin Koalindo Tuhup at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM).
This was done after the antirasuah commission arrested the boss of PT Borneo Lumbung Energi dan Metal (PT BORN), Samin Tan.
The investigation was conducted by investigators by calling three witnesses.
They are Director of PT Borneo Lumbung Energi and Metal Nenie Afwani; Kenneth Raymond Allan is said to be from Minning and Industry; and a private employee Andreay Hasudungan Aritonga.
"All three were examined as witnesses for SMT suspects," KPK Spokesman Ali Fikri said in a written statement on Monday, April 12.
It is not yet known what the matter of the examination of the three men is. However, the three allegedly knew about the development of the case that began from a hand-catching operation (OTT) against the former Vice Chairman of Commission VII of the House of Representatives Eni Maulani Saragih.

At that time, Eni responded to Samin Tan's request. Furthermore, Eni as a member of Panja Minerba in Commission VII dpr ri even used the hearing meeting forum to influence the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.
Not only that, she also allegedly asked Samin Tan for some money for the election of her husband, Muhammad Al Khadziq in Temanggung Regency. The gift took place in two stages through Samin Tan staff and Eni experts.
The first phase was given on June 1, 2018, as much as Rp4 billion and the second grant occurred on June 22, 2018 as much as Rp1 billion.
