JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is currently analyzing the alleged receipt of a project fee of Rp. 16 billion which was carried out by an active police named Yayat Sudrajat alias Lippo.
This alleged receipt emerged in the trial of the ijon project bribery case with the defendant Sarjan as the businessman who bribed the non-active Regent Ade Kuswara and his father, Kunang. Yayat is also known to have been questioned by KPK investigators on Tuesday, January 13.
"The case in Bekasi, yes, it is true, this is a fact of the trial, we have also received information from the JPU team that there is a fee of approximately Rp. 16 billion which was admitted by brother Yayat and this has been stated in the BAP (news of the examination event) as well," said Acting (Plt) Director of KPK Investigation Achmad Taufik Husein to reporters at the KPK Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, quoted Tuesday, March 14.
Taufik said that the facts of the trial were analyzed to be developed later. "That is also all a consideration," he said.
In the future, the KPK also ensures that the bribery case for the ijon project in Bekasi Regency will continue to be thoroughly investigated. Proof of this, a number of searches are being carried out as well as examining a number of witnesses, such as members of the West Java Provincial DPRD.
It is known that in this case, the KPK has just searched the house of the Deputy Chairman of the West Java Provincial DPRD as well as the Chairman of the PDIP DPD Ono Surono. From this forced effort, investigators seized money that was suspected to be related.
"Maybe colleagues see, the investigation team is still working, such as conducting searches at the homes of several members of the DPRD (West Java) related to this case. So, please wait that we will not keep silent about these facts," he said.
Launching from a number of reports, Yayat's name appeared in the Sarjan trial. The businessman is known to have been charged with bribing Ade Kuswara with Rp. 11.4 billion to get a work package for the 2025 Fiscal Year (TA).
As previously reported, the KPK suspected that Ono Surono as Deputy Chairman of the West Java Provincial DPRD received money from Sarjan who had been named a suspect. The suspicion was conveyed after he underwent an examination as a witness on Thursday, January 15.
The KPK has not detailed how much money was received. However, Ono was then examined to investigate the allegations.
It is known that the KPK has 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. This determination was made after they were caught in a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on Thursday, December 18.
Ade Kuswara and H.M Kunang as the recipients of bribes are suspected of violating Article 12 a or Article 11 and Article 12B of the Corruption Eradication Law (UU Tipikor) in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph 1-1 of the Criminal Code and Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a or b or Article 13 of the Tipikor Law in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) -1 of the Criminal Code.
