JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said the Royal Enfield motorbike confiscated from the residence of former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil or Kang Emil was taken to a safe place. Investigators put the vehicle in a location located in the jurisdiction of the West Java Police.
This confiscation is related to allegations of corruption in the placement of advertisements for PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR) for the period 2021-2023.
"For the RK motorbike, investigators are still securing it in the jurisdiction of the West Java Regional Police. Not yet (taken, red) to the Rupbasan," said KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardhika to reporters in a written statement, Monday, April 21.
Tessa did not specify why the big motorbike was not immediately taken by investigators to the Confiscated Object Storage House (Rupbasan) after being confiscated since March 2025.
However, a VOI source said the transfer was not carried out due to operational costs.
It is known that the KPK is currently implementing efficiency in accordance with Presidential Instruction (Inpres) Number 1 of 2025 concerning Expenditure Efficiency in the Implementation of the State Budget and Regional Budget for Fiscal Year 2025. The budget ceiling, which was previously IDR 1.237 trillion, was IDR 1.036 trillion or a decrease of IDR 201 billion.
"Investigators cannot move the two-wheeled vehicle to Jakarta because the KPK does not have a budget," said the source via text message, Saturday afternoon, April 19, 2025.
This source said that the confiscated vehicle was usually carried out using a truck or towing. The process cannot be done carelessly to keep the value of the goods from falling.
Previously reported, the KPK confiscated evidence related to the corruption case in the placement of advertisements for PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR) for the period 2021-2023. Among them are deposits worth IDR 70 billion to vehicles.
"We also confiscated a sum of money, but in the form of deposits of approximately Rp. 70 billion, there were several two-wheeled and four-wheeled vehicles," said Acting Director of KPK Investigation, Budi Sokmo, to reporters at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Thursday, March 13, 2025.
In this case, five suspects have been named. They are former President Director of Bank BJB Yuddy Renaldi; Head of Corporate Secretary Division of Bank BJB Widi Hartoto; Agency Controller Antedja Muliatama and Cakrawala Kreasi Mandiri Kin Asikin Dulmanan; Agency Controller of BSC Advertising and PT Wahana Semesta Bandung Ekspres (WSBE) Suhendrik; and Controlling of PT Cipta Karya Sukses Bersama (CKSB) and PT Cipta Karya Mandiri Bersama (CKMB) Raden Sophan Jaya Kusuma.
