JAKARTA - Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Firli Bahuri emphasized that the investigation of bribery cases at the Tax Directorate General (DG) will continue even though he has detained the 2016-2019 Directorate General of Tax Inspection and Billing Director, Angin Prayitno Aji.
It is not impossible, in the future, the KPK will also investigate taxpayers who are suspected of bribing Angin through tax consultants or their representatives.
"It's not over yet. So this is not the last stage, the show is not over. This is just the beginning of what investigators have found," Firli told reporters at the KPK's Red and White House, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, May 4.
Investigators, he continued, are currently only investigating this case as a start. But, it is not impossible, in the future there will be other criminal acts in this case which are found including money laundering (TPPU).
"Why did I say early? Today we uncovered bribery cases related to receiving gifts or promises, but, did we stop here, of course not," he said.
"Because of the criminal act of corruption, of course we have to prove the bribery and the part of corruption. At the same time we will see if (there, red) other criminal acts in the form of money laundering," added the former Deputy of Corruption Eradication of the Corruption Eradication Commission.
Previously reported, the KPK named two officials at the Directorate General of Taxes as suspects.
The two people are the Director of Audit and Collection at the 2016-2019 Directorate General of Taxes, Angin Prayitno Aji and the Head of the Sub-Directorate for Cooperation and Audit Support at the Directorate General of Taxes Dadan Ramdani.
The determination of the suspect was made after the KPK conducted an examination of 30 witnesses who were suspected of knowing the suspects' actions.
In addition, the KPK also named four other suspects in the alleged bribery. They are three tax consultants, namely Ryan Ahmad Ronas, Aulia Imran Maghribi, and Agus Susetyo as well as a taxpayer attorney, Veronika Lindawati.
In this case, Angin together with Dadan are suspected of receiving money three times in 2018-2019.
In January-February 2018, there was a receipt of Rp. 15 billion in cash which was submitted by representatives of PT GMP, namely Ryan Ahmad and Aulia Imran.
Furthermore, receipts were also made in mid-2018 in the amount of 500 thousand Singapore dollars submitted by Veronika Lindawati as a representative of PT BPI. This figure is part of the agreed commitment of IDR 25 billion.
The last receipt of money was in July-September 2019. This money was received from the representative of PT Jhonlin Baratama, namely Agung Susetyo worth 3 million Singapore dollars.
