JAKARTA - Investigators from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) found evidence in the form of documents and other evidence related to the alleged corruption in the project carried out by the inactive Banjarnegara Regent, Budhi Sarwono.

This finding was obtained after searches were carried out at seven different locations on Saturday, October 9, and Monday, October 11 yesterday.

"From all these places and locations, the investigative team found and secured various evidence, including documents and electronic devices allegedly related to the case", KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Affairs, Ali Fikri, told reporters, Tuesday, October 12.

On Monday, October 11, the places searched by investigators were the Banjarnegara Regency Regional Secretariat Office, the Goods, and Services Procurement Unit (UKPBJ) room, as well as the houses of related parties in Parakancanggah Village, Banjarnegara Regency.

Meanwhile, on Saturday, October 9, investigators searched the homes of related parties in Temanggungan Kalipelus, Bandingan Rakit, Parakananggah Village, and Twelagiri Village.

"Furthermore, this evidence will be analyzed in-depth and immediately confiscated to be part of the completeness of the case file for suspect BS (Budhi Sarwono) et al", said Ali.

Previously, the Regent of Banjarnegara Budhi was named a suspect along with Kedy Afandi (KA) who was the former head of his success team during the election. He is suspected of receiving a commitment fee of around IDR 2.1 billion from contractors who want to get projects in his area.

Not only asking for a fee commitment but Budhi was also named a suspect because he played an active role in the implementation of the tender for infrastructure work. The KPK suspects that he participated directly in distributing the work packages at the PUPR (Ministry of Public Works and Housing) Service, including family companies, and arranging the auction winners.

While Kedy is always monitored and directed by Budhi, especially when making arrangements for the division of work. This is intended so that companies affiliated with him and incorporated in the Bumi Redjo group can splash out on procurement projects.
