JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will investigate the civil trial process related to the disputed land involving PT Karabha Digdaya. Investigators will investigate whether there is any other corruption allegations in it.

This was conveyed by the acting (Plt) Deputy for Enforcement and Execution of the KPK, Asep Guntur Rahayu, who explained that the Depok District Court (PN) hand-arrest operation (OTT) occurred because there was a bribe for land execution management.

"Well, this is the process, there is no bribery, right. This is at the first stage, we are still investigating," Asep said at a press conference at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Friday, February 6 evening.

Asep said that the alleged bribes they found were currently in the execution process. The KPK will also later investigate the steps of the business entity in the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) to occupy land of around 6,000 square meters in the Tapos area, Depok.

"What is the effort, well, that's what we will both wait for," he said.

As previously reported, the KPK announced five suspects of receiving bribes and gratuities related to land dispute management at the Depok District Court (PN) after carrying out a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on Thursday evening, February 6. They are the Chairman of the Depok District Court (PN) I Wayan Eka Mariarta; Deputy Chairman of the Depok District Court (PN) Bambang Setyawan; Jurusita PN Depok Yohansyah Maruanaya; President Director of PT Karabha Digdaya, Trisnandi Yulrisman; and Head of Corporate Legal PT Karabha Digdaya, Berliana Tri Kusuma.

This case is said to have started in 2023, when the Depok PN granted a lawsuit by PT Karabha Digdaya, which is a business entity in the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) related to a land dispute of 6,500 meters in Tapos District, Depok, West Java.

PT Karaba Digdaya then allegedly gave Rp850 million which came from the disbursement of a check with a fictitious invoice payment underlying PT SKBB Consulting Solusindo (consultant to PT KD) to.

The donation was allegedly handed over to I Wayan Eka and Bambang Setiawan through Yohansyah as a jurusita.

As a result of their actions, the suspects are suspected of violating Article 605 letter a and/or Article 606 paragraph (1) of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code in conjunction with Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Corruption Crimes.

In addition, Bambang is also suspected of violating Article 12 B of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Corruption Crimes. Because, he is suspected of receiving a gratification of IDR 2.5 billion which originated from a deposit on a foreign exchange exchange on behalf of PT Daha Mulia Valasindo (DMV).
