JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Johanis Tanak admitted that he was resigned to providing rehabilitation to former President Director of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry, Ira Puspadewi et al by President Prabowo Subianto. The institution is said to have not been able to do much.
Meanwhile, Ira received rehabilitation after being sentenced by the Jakarta Corruption Court together with the former Director of Planning and Development of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry, Harry Muhammad Adhi Caksono and former Commercial and Service Director of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry.
They were found guilty in the corruption case of the acquisition and business cooperation (KSU) of PT Jembatan Nusantara by PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry.
"KPK cannot intervene in the President's decision to provide rehabilitation to Ira Puspita and the other two defendants," Johanis told reporters in a written statement, Tuesday, November 25 evening.
Johanis said President Prabowo Subianto did have the prerogative to grant forgiveness. In Article 14 of the 1945 Constitution, the President is given the right to grant clemency and rehabilitation by taking into account the considerations of the Supreme Court and granting amnesty and abolition by taking into account the considerations of the DPR RI.'
As previously reported, President Prabowo Subianto signed the granting of rehabilitation for three parties involved in the legal case of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry. They are Ira Puspadewi as former Director of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry; former Director of Planning and Development of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry, Harry Muhammad Adhi Caksono, and former Commercial and Service Director of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry.
The decision was conveyed by Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Sufmi Dasco Ahmad in a press statement with Minister of State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi and Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya at the Presidential office, Jakarta, Tuesday, November 25.
"From the results of communication with the government, thank God there are today, the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Mr. Prabowo Subianto has signed a letter of rehabilitation for the three names," he said.
He said the President was observing a series of communications between the DPR and the government regarding the dynamics of the case that has been sticking out since July 2024. Dasco explained, since the ASDP case rolled out, his party has received various complaints and aspirations from the public and community groups.
Following up on this, the leadership of the DPR asked Commission III as a legal sector partner to conduct an in-depth study of the progress of the case investigation.
