JAKARTA - PT Blueray Cargo turns out to be still on the red line with a percentage above 80 percent throughout July 2025 to January 2026. The facts revealed in the bribery and gratification case trial in the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC) are considered to show that the case investigated by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is wider than just the relationship between the company and a number of Customs officials.
R. Gautama Wiranegara as a specialist in counter-intelligence analysis said the fact of the trial opened the possibility of larger problems in the governance of customs supervision.
"We can no longer read this case only from the perspective of Blue Ray. There are other names, there is money from cigarette entrepreneurs, there is an alleged wider manipulation of the system," Gautama told reporters, Friday, June 5.
Gautama said the testimony of witness Fillar Marindra in the trial on June 3 showed an order to place Blue Ray in the red lane category above 70 percent. However, the data shown at the trial actually showed that the company's average red lane was above 80 percent throughout July 2025 to January 2026.
This fact is important because in the bribery case it is not enough to prove the flow of money. Law enforcement also needs to elaborate on the benefits or advantages obtained by the giver from the actions of officials who are suspected of receiving the money.
The trial also revealed another fact that was considered no less important. Based on the Examination Report (BAP) and witness testimony at the trial, the discussion regarding the setting of targeting parameters not only touched Blue Ray.
A number of other importer names such as Fasdelli, Ali Medan, Nusa Fikry, and Harta Jaya also emerged in the context of arranging the inspection route for imported goods.
Not only that, Orlando Hamonangan in the trial was said to have received money not only from Blue Ray, but also from a number of other importers. If this fact is proven, then the case that is currently rolling can no longer be seen as a case that only involves one company.
"Blue Ray is not the only node. It is only one point in the ecosystem of relations between forwarders or importers and technical operators of Customs," said Gautama.
On the other hand, the facts of the trial also touched on allegations of funds originating from the tax sector. One of them was revealed from the testimony of Budiman Bayu Prasojo who admitted that he had rejected funds that were said to come from Blueray because they were not related to his duties in the tax sector.
On the other hand, Budiman admitted receiving operational funds from a number of cigarette entrepreneurs. This condition is considered to indicate two different clusters of cases, namely import customs and tobacco excise.
Therefore, Gautama reminded that the handling of cases should still be carried out carefully and based on evidence so that the construction of each case is not mixed.
According to him, the question that now needs to be answered is no longer just who gives and receives money, but rather who controls the targeting system, who gets the biggest profit, and whether there are still other parties who have not been touched by the legal process.
"If Blueray is only a small node that is the easiest to prove, while the larger node is outside the indictment, then the public has the right to ask whether what is dismantled is the system or only the most visible part."
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.
