SEMARANG - The former Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Semarang City, Iswar Aminudin, revealed a number of information related to alleged irregularities within the Semarang City Government.
This was conveyed when he testified in the trial of the alleged corruption case that ensnared the former Mayor of Semarang, Hevearita G. Rahayu, and her husband, Arwin Basri, at the Semarang Corruption Court (Tipikor), Monday, July 14.
"There is a lot of information coming in, but there is no official report to the regional secretary," said Iswar in a trial chaired by Chief Judge Gatot Sarwadi as quoted by Antara.
Iswar said that the information included cutting the budget for the implementation of direct appointment work at the sub-district level. According to him, a number of sub-district heads conveyed the information informally.
In addition, Iswar also received information regarding the alleged interference of Alwin Basri in projects in the city of Semarang. One of them is through the Chairman of the Association of Indonesian National Construction Implementers (Gapensi) of Semarang City, Martono.
He also testified about Alwin's alleged intervention in the job auction process, which was revealed by the former Head of the Goods and Services Procurement Agency, Junaidi.
Not only that, Iswar said he received information about deposits originating from the joint contributions of Semarang City Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) employees. The deposit, mentioned, was addressed to Hevearita and Alwin Basri.
"Bu Iin (Head of the Semarang City Bapenda, Indriyasari) once told about giving to Mrs. Ita," said Iswar.
Furthermore, Iswar also conveyed information regarding the ban from the Mayor of Hevearita to a number of Semarang City Government employees not to comply with the summons of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).
"Get information about people called by the KPK to tidy up the administration. There is also information that aides and mayor drivers are asked to destroy their cell phones," he added.
Responding to the testimony, Hevearita, who is familiarly called Mbak Ita, admitted that at that time the atmosphere was panicking because of an investigation from the KPK.
