Cases Of BUMD Financial Management Corruption In East Kalimantan, Former Director Of PT MMPKT And Former Managing Director Of PT MMPH Are Suspects

The High Prosecutor's Office (Kejati) of East Kalimantan (Kaltim) has appointed HA as President Director of PT Migas Mandiri Pratama Kaltim (MMPKT) 2013-2017 and LA as PT Migas Mandiri Pratama Hilir (MMPH) 2013-2017 as a suspect in alleged corruption.

The two former regional company officials (Perusda) have been detained.

"The detention of the two suspects is related to the handling of the alleged corruption case of financial management at PT MMPH, which is a subsidiary of the BUMD PT MMPKT," said Deputy Head of the East Kalimantan Prosecutor's Office, Amiek Mulan, in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, Wednesday, February 8, as reported by Antara.

Amiek explained, PT MMPH is a subsidiary of the BUMD PT MMPKT. In the 2014-2015 period, PT MMPKT lent a sum of money to PT MMPH on the grounds of cooperation in investment without going through studies, feasibility studies and plans in the Work Plan and Revenue Budget (RKAP).

Then the money handed over from PT MMPKT to PT MMPH came from the East Kalimantan Provincial Government's capital participation to PT MMPKT.

The loan is planned by PT MMPH to be used for capital participation activities in the manpower supply sector, project financing for the business park area, and construction of workshops and gas stations at kilometer 4 Loa Janan.

"From the start, it was suspected that there had been an inappropriate agreement from the suspects in financial management who provided loans without going through a study, the feasibility of business studies, RKAP and other requirements regulated in the laws and regulations, resulting in state financial losses of Rp25,209,090,090," explained Toni.

He continued, the reason for the detention was that it was suspected that the suspect would run away, damage and destroy evidence and or repeat the crime and the act committed by the suspect was a criminal act that was threatened with imprisonment of five years or more as regulated in Article 21 paragraph (1) and paragraph (4) letter a of the Criminal Procedure Code, "he explained.

"To note together, two suspects have been detained for 20 (twenty) days at the Class IIA Samarinda Detention Center," said Toni.
