JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has again detained a suspect in the alleged corruption case in land acquisition in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon, Jakarta. This time the KPK detained Anja Runtuwene, who is the Deputy Director of PT Adonara Propertindo.

"Efforts were made to force the arrest of suspect AR for 20 days," said KPK Deputy Chair Lili Pintauli Siregar at a press conference held at the KPK's Merah Putih building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Wednesday, June 2.

Anja is being held at the Polda Metro Jaya Detention Center from June 2 to June 21. "Before the detention, a health check and a COVID-19 PCR swab test were carried out," he said.

This is done to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the prison environment.

Prior to the detention, the KPK had examined 46 witnesses. This is done to investigate allegations of corruption that occurred, including other parties suspected of playing a role.

This case began when PT Adonara Propertindo cooperated with PDPSJ in the land acquisition process. Next, in March 2019, Anja was said to have actively offered Munjul land to PDPSJ first.

At the same time, Anja also held a meeting with the Congregation of the Sisters of Karolus Boromeus in Yogyakarta. During this meeting, an agreement was reached on the purchase of land in Munjul, Pondok Ranggon, Jakarta by Anja Runtuwene and an immediate down payment of Rp5 billion was made.

"The handover of the SHGB (Certificate of Building Use Rights) and the girik land from the Congregation of the Sisters of Karolus Boromeus is carried out through a Notary appointed by AR," said Lili.

Next, on April 8, it was agreed that the signing of the Deed of Sale and Purchase Agreement before a notary took place at the PDPSJ office between the buying parties, namely Yoory Cornelis and Anja as the seller.

Payments worth 50 percent were also made at that time, or amounting to Rp108.9 billion. Subsequently, the second payment was made in the amount of Rp. 43.5 billion.

However, this process turned out to be carried out without following applicable legal rules such as conducting a study on the feasibility of a land object and not conducting an appraisal study without being supported by the complete requirements according to the relevant regulations.

In addition, this BUMD company is also strongly suspected of carrying out the process and stages of land acquisition not according to procedures and there are documents that are prepared in a back date, as well as an initial price agreement between Anja and Perumda Sarana Jaya before the negotiation process is carried out.

The KPK explained that in the land acquisition process, state losses occurred. The amount even reaches hundreds of billions of rupiah.

"The actions of the suspects are suspected to have resulted in state financial losses of at least Rp. 152.5 billion," said Lili.

Therefore, for his actions, Anja was later accused of violating Article 2 paragraph (1) or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 Juncto Article 55 paragraph (1) of the 1st Criminal Code. .

Previously, the KPK had detained the former President Director of the Regional Public Company for the Development of Sarana Jaya, Yoory Corneles. In this case, the KPK has named three suspects, namely Yoory, Anja, and Director of PT Adonara Propertindo Tomy Ardian. In addition, the KPK has also named PT Adonara Propertindo as a corporate suspect in this case.
