JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will step on the gas to examine a number of witnesses related to allegations of corruption in social responsibility funds or BI Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK) in 2020-2023. Investigators need their statements to strengthen the actions of the two suspects, namely Satori and Heri Gunawan.

Meanwhile, Satori is a member of Commission XI of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the 2019-2024 period from the NasDem Party faction. Meanwhile, Heri Gunawan is a member of Commission XI of the Indonesian House of Representatives for the 2019-2024 period from the Gerindra Party faction.

"The KPK will certainly conduct an examination of related parties who are suspected of knowing the construction of this case for questioning in order to make this case clear," said KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo to reporters in a written statement, Monday, August 11.

Budi said investigators would focus on several things. Among them are the flow of CSR program money that is not suitable for allocation.

"This is to ensure that every rupiah of state money is not misused for personal gain or other parties, with various modes of corruption," he said.

"Therefore, the KPK will continue to trace and track other parties suspected of being involved," continued Budi.

As previously reported, the KPK officially announced the legislators of the DPR RI from the NasDem Satori Party faction and Heri Gunawan, who are legislators of the DPR RI from the Gerindra Party faction, as suspects in the alleged corruption of CSR BI funds. They are suspected of receiving gratuities and money laundering (TPPU).

In this case, Satori allegedly received a total of IDR 12.52 billion. The details are IDR 6.30 billion from BI; IDR 5.14 billion from OJK through Financial Counseling activities; and IDR 1.04 billion from other working partners of Commission XI DPR RI.

The money is allegedly used for personal needs, such as deposits, land purchases, showroom construction, purchases of two-wheeled vehicles, and purchases of other assets.

Meanwhile, Heri Gunawan received a total of Rp15.86 billion and used it also for personal gain. The details are Rp6.26 billion from BI; Rp7.64 billion from OJK through Financial Counseling activities; and Rp1.94 billion from other working partners of Commission XI DPR RI.

The money was then accommodated in an account. Heri Gunawan then used it to build restaurants, manage drinking outlets, purchase land and buildings to purchase four-wheeled vehicles.

The social funds received by the two suspects from BI and OJK were immediately distributed to 4 foundations managed by Rumah Aspirasi Heri Gunawan and 8 foundations managed by Rumah Aspira Satori.
