The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) signaled that it would immediately summon former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil regarding the alleged corruption in the procurement of advertisements at PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR).

This was conveyed by the KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo who stated that investigators still needed information from other parties after examining Lisa Mariana on Friday, August 22. The celebgram has been questioned and claimed to have received a flow of money.

"Investigators will certainly still call other witnesses to complete the investigation in this case, including tracing the use and allocation of non-budget funds in the BJB case. Follow the money," Budi told reporters quoted on Monday, August 25.

As for Lisa's statement, Budi said, investigators were still conducting further investigations. Thus, a number of witnesses will be summoned, including Ridwan Kamil.

"The KPK is open to calling for a request for information to any parties suspected of knowing the construction of this case," he said.

Previously, Lisa Mariana admitted that she received money from former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil. This statement was conveyed after being investigated regarding allegations of corruption in the procurement of advertisements at PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat and Banten Tbk or Bank BJB (BJBR).

"Yes, it's for my son," Lisa told reporters at the KPK's Red and White building, Friday, August 22.

Even so, Lisa did not specify how much money she received. I can't call the nominal.

In the alleged corruption in the procurement of advertisements, five suspects have been named. They are former President Director of Bank BJB Yuddy Renaldi; Bank BJB Corporate Secretary Division Head Widi Hartoto; Agency Controller Antedja Muliatama and Cakrawala Kreasi Mandiri Kin Asikin Dulmanan; Agency Controller of BSC Advertising and PT Wahana Semesta Bandung Express (WSBE) Suhendrik; and Controlling of PT Cipta Karya Sukses Bersama (CKSB) and PT Cipta Karya Mandiri Bersama (CKMB) Raden Sophan Jaya Kusuma.

This case investigation warrant (sprindik) was issued on February 27, 2025. The actions of the five suspects are suspected of having caused the state to lose up to Rp22 billion.

Currently, the detention has not been carried out on five suspects. However, they have been prevented from traveling abroad for six months and can be extended according to the needs of the investigation.

Still in the same case, Ridwan Kamil's name was also dragged after investigators confiscated a Royal Enfield motorbike at his house and a Mercedes Benz 280 SL at a workshop. This forced effort was carried out during a search around March.
