JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) continues to investigate the role of the non-active Regent of Pati Sudewo as a member of Commission V of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia in the case of bribery for the construction of a railway line at the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA) of the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub).

One of the secrets is related to the conditioning of prospective job providers for the Central Java and East Java Railway Engineering Center (BTP).

KPK spokesman Budi Prasetyo said that the investigation was carried out by examining Mohamad Risal Wasal as the Director General of Transportation and Multimodal Integration of the Ministry of Transportation. The inspection was carried out at the KPK Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta on Thursday, April 23.

"Investigators are investigating materials related to the arrangement, conditioning, and plotting of prospective providers in the work environment of the Central Java Railway Engineering Office (BTP) and the East Java Railway Engineering Office (BTP), especially those carried out by the suspect SDW," said Budi in a written statement, Friday, April 24.

In addition, similar investigations were also investigated by investigators from Ari Hendratno as the Commitment Maker Officer (PPK) for Railway Maintenance at the Ngrombo Railway Maintenance Center.

In fact, said Budi, investigators will also ask for information from other parties, including the staff of the Directorate of Railway Infrastructure of the Ministry of Transportation, Dicky Hendrik Kusbiantoro; Head of the Ngrombo Railway Maintenance Center, Mochamad Andi Hary Murty; and Sukamiskin residents, Putu Sumarjaya. But, they did not meet the call.

As previously reported, the KPK continues to develop the bribery case for the railway line development project of the Director General of Railways (DJKA) of the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) for East Java.
