JAKARTA - The trial of alleged bribery and gratification of import goods in the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC) is considered to be an arena for proving facts that emerge during the investigation process by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). One of them is about a document containing a blue, dark brown, and light brown list.
"The public and business actors cannot continue to live in a space of suspicion. The trial is a proving ground. There is a 'chocolate list' if it is true that it will be revealed or forever sink. The KPK does not need to be afraid of opening the whole map, because the facts will speak in court," said Gautama Wiranegara as a specialist in counter-intelligence analysis through his written statement, Wednesday, June 3.
Gautama said that this list still leaves a question mark. Because, the indictment and the trial testimony are more about the involvement of a number of customs officials in the import case.
"In the counterintelligence method, the color code is a map. If 'Blue' is a technical official, then 'Brown' and 'Old Brown' for whom? Are they big businessmen, other law enforcement officers, or political officials? This must be tested in court, not hidden," he said.
In addition, Gautama also highlighted the KPK's statement regarding the deepening of 20 forwarders in a number of ports. According to him, the position of dozens of companies must be determined immediately.
"Don't let this condition cause uncertainty among logistics and international trade actors," said Gautama.
He assessed that global logistics companies need clear legal certainty regarding which parties are actually involved and which parties only appear in the process of deepening the investigation.
"The longer the legal status of various parties is unclear, the greater the risk of reputation that the business world bears. In fact, the logistics industry needs certainty, not speculation," said Gautama.
He encouraged the KPK to provide a proportional explanation regarding the development of the case so as not to create the perception of selective law enforcement. "The public and business actors do not need a bigger story. They need an honest map. And the map will be bright in the courtroom, as long as the KPK does not hide a single document," said Gautama.
As previously reported, the KPK announced six suspects related to alleged bribes and gratuities related to the import of goods at the Directorate General of Customs and Excise after conducting a hand-in-hand operation (OTT) on February 4. One of them is the Director of Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (P2 DJBC) for the period 2024-2026, Rizal.
In addition to Rizal, the KPK also named five other suspects. They are Sisprian Subiaksono (SIS) as Head of the Subdirectorate of Intelligence, Enforcement and Investigation of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasubdit Intel P2 DJBC); Orlando Hamonangan (ORL) as Head of the Intelligence Section of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (Kasi Intel DJBC); John Field (JF) as owner of PT Blueray (BR); Andri as Head of the Import Documents Team of PT BR; and Dedy Kurniawan as Operational Manager of PT BR.
The KPK suspects that this case began in October 2025 when Orlando Hamonangan and Sisprian Subiaksono together with John Field, Andri, and Dedy Kurniawan committed a conspiracy. They arranged the planning of the import route of goods that would enter Indonesia.
Furthermore, the KPK announced the Head of the Tax Intelligence Section for Enforcement and Investigation (P2) of the Directorate General of Customs (DJBC) Budiman Bayu Prasojo (BBP) as a new suspect in the case of alleged gratification related to the import of goods. The arrest was then carried out at the DJBC headquarters in East Jakarta on Thursday, February 26.

As a result of his actions, he is suspected of violating Article 12 B of Law No. 31 of 1999 jo. UU No. 20 of 2001 jo. Article 20 letter c of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (KUHP).
