JAKARTA - Deputy Commissioner for Capital Market Supervision II of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Fakhri Hilmi (FH) has been named a new suspect in the alleged corruption case of PT Asuransi Jiwasraya (Persero). FH is suspected of being involved in the process of corruption which resulted in the state-owned insurance company failing to pay customer funds and resulting in state losses.

"One suspect from the OJK Financial Services Authority on behalf of FH, at that time served as Head of the Capital Market Supervision Department 2A for the period February 14-17 (2014-2017). Was appointed Deputy Commissioner of Capital Market Supervision 2 OJK for the 2017-present period," Head of the Attorney General's Office of Legal Information, Hari Setiyono, said in his statement, Thursday, June 25.

For his actions, FH was charged with Article 2 subsidair Article 3 of Law 31 of 1999 as amended in Law 20 of 2001 concerning Corruption Crimes. Hari explained, it is possible that FH will also be charged with the article of the crime of money laundering if evidence is found from the results of later development.

Even though he was named a suspect, Hari said the Attorney General's Office had not detained FH. However, investigators will propose prevention abroad for the suspect.

"In the meantime, he has not been detained. When determining an individual suspect, it will always be followed by bans (prevention)," he said.

OJK Deputy Commissioner for Public Relations and Logistics Anto Prabowo admitted that he could not provide any information regarding the determination of the suspect Fakhri Hilmi. He hopes that all parties can give time to wait for the OJK to give an official statement.

13 Corporations

In addition, the Attorney General's Office also charged 13 corporations as suspects in this case. These companies are investment managers who are suspected of being involved in the flight of customer money. From the involvement of the investment management company, the state's losses were estimated at IDR 12.1 trillion.

Hari said the loss was part of the state loss that was submitted by the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) amounting to Rp. 16.81 trillion some time ago. All companies designated as suspects are charged with suspicion of Money Laundering (TPPU).

"For the 13 corporations, the suspicion is that they have committed a criminal act of corruption as stipulated in Article 2 Subsidair Article 3 of the Corruption Crime Act (Tipikor) and the suspicion is TPPU," he said.

According to Hari, until now his party has continued to investigate the Jiwasraya case by deepening the company's transactions from 2014-2018.

Furthermore, Hari said, if later the results of the investigation prove that there are assets resulting from crimes, the Attorney General's Office will carry out the confiscation. However, this process does not interfere with the way business operations are carried out.

The 13 companies that have been named as suspects are PT DM / PAC, PT OMI, PT PPI, PT MD, PT PAM and PT MAM. In addition, there are also PT MNC, PT GC, PT JCAM, PT PAAM, PT CC, PT TVI, and PT SAM.

With the appointment of new suspects from corporations and high-ranking OJK officials, this adds to the length of the list of suspects in the Jiwasraya case that caused losses to the state Rp. Previously, the trial process for the six defendants had been carried out.

They are President Commissioner of Trada Alam Minera Heru Hidayat, President Director of Hanson International Benny Tjokrosaputro, and three Jiwasraya officials, namely former Finance Director Hary Prasetyo, former President Director Hendrisman Rahim, former company official Syahmirwan and Director of PT Maxima Integra Group, Joko Hartono Tirto.

The six defendants were charged with corruption in Article 2 paragraph (1) or Article 3 in conjunction with Article 18 paragraph (1) letter b, paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) Law no. 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Corruption Crime.
