JAKARTA - The chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, has been questioned by investigators from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). This PDIP politician was investigated in connection with the alleged corruption case in the procurement of the Munjul Land, Pondok Ranggon, East Jakarta.

To the media crew, Prasetyo claimed that the DKI DPRD was only responsible for discussing the budget. As for the others, he handed over to the Governor of DKI Jakarta Anies Baswedan.

"The point is that the discussion is over, just ask the Governor (Anies Baswedan)," said Prasetyo at the KPK Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, September 21.

Furthermore, the PDI-P politician also emphasized that the Budget Agency is only responsible for approving the disbursement of the budget. However, the budget is not specific for the Munjul land acquisition but for the entire operation of Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya.

"I leave the logs (budget, ed) to the executive. Now, the executive must be responsible," said Prasetyo, who was questioned by the KPK for more than four hours.

Previously reported, the KPK summoned Prasetyo Edi for questioning as a witness for the suspect Yoory Corneles, the former Director of Perumda Pembangunan Sarana Jaya.

In this case, the KPK has named five suspects in this case, namely former Director of Perumda Sarana Jaya Yoory Corneles, Director of PT Adonara Propertindo Tomy Ardian, Deputy Director of PT Adonara Propertindo Anja Runtuwene, and Director of PT Aldira Berkah Abadi Makmur Rudy Hartono Iskandar.

In addition, the KPK has also named PT Adonara Propertindo as a corporate suspect in this case.

This case began when Perumda Sarana Jaya was given a project to find land in Jakarta to be used as a land bank. Perumda Sarana Jaya chose PT Adonara Propertindo as a partner to find land that could be used as a land bank.

After the partnership agreement, Yoory and Anja agreed to purchase land in East Jakarta on April 8, 2019. After the agreement, Perumda Sarana Jaya deposited 50 percent of the land payment, or around Rp. 108.8 billion, into Anja's account through Bank DKI.

After the first payment, Yoory tried to get Perumda Sarana Jaya to send Rp43.5 billion to Anja. The money is the remaining land payment agreed by both parties.

In the purchase of the land, the KPK detected four anomalies that led to allegations of corruption. First, the purchase of land is not accompanied by a feasibility study of the object.

Second, the purchase of land is not accompanied by an appraisal study and is not supported by the completeness of the applicable requirements.

Then, the purchase of land was not in accordance with the procedure and the purchase documents were not prepared backwards. Lastly, regarding the initial price agreement made by Anja and Perumda Sarana Jaya before the negotiation process was carried out.
