Bekasi - Bekasi Regent Ade Kuswara chose to remain silent when asked about the information on the provision of money to Eddy Sumarman when he served as the Head of the Bekasi Regency District Attorney (Kajari).
This moment occurred after he was examined as a witness at the KPK Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta today, January 6. Instead of answering the information, Ade only said that he was asked for information to complete the file of another suspect in the bribery case of the ijon project which was revealed from the operation of the hand capture (OTT).
"I was examined as a witness," said Ade briefly while rushing to the prisoner's car that was waiting in the lobby of the building.
Meanwhile, from the information collected, Ade is said to have given Rp100 million to Eddy for securing the case. Meanwhile, his father, H. M. Kunang is suspected of receiving Rp300 million.
This donation, still from the same information, was through Beni Saputra as the former Cipta Karya and Spatial Planning Sekdis of Bekasi Regency as an intermediary.
Beni is known to have been caught in OTT some time ago. He was also questioned on Monday, January 5.
As for the previous OTT, the KPK had sealed Eddy's house in the Bekasi and Pondok Indah areas.
As previously reported, the KPK named Bekasi Regent Ade Kuswara together with his father, H. M Kumang who also served as the Head of Sukadami Village, South Cikarang District; and a private named Sarjan as suspects in the alleged bribery case for the ijon project. They were detained at the KPK State Detention House (Rutan) for the first 20 days until January 8, 2026.
The three became suspects after being caught in a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on Thursday, December 18.
