Auction Arrangements To Bribes To Kabasarnas Continue To Be Investigated By KPK
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is questioning a witness, namely Marketing PT Kindah Abadi Utama, Tommy Setyawan in the bribery case for the procurement of goods and services at the National SAR Agency (Basarnas). Investigators explored the auction process before the procurement was carried out."The witness was present and his knowledge was explored, among others, related to the alleged auction arrangement," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Thursday, August 24.In addition, Tommy was also asked about giving money to the Head of Basarnas (Kabasarnas) Marshal Henri Alfiandi. Ali did not specify the amount of money received but the testimony from the witness is believed to make clear the receipt.As previously reported, the anti-corruption commission only uncovered the alleged bribery in the procurement of goods and services at Basarnas through a hand arrest operation (OTT) on Tuesday, July 25. From this active action, the KPK announced five people as suspects.The five suspects are Kabasarnas Marshal Henri Alfiandi and Koorsmin Kabasarnas Lt. Col. Afri Budi Cahyanto as suspects for receiving bribes. Meanwhile, as the giver is the President Commissioner of PT Multi Grafika Cipta Sejati, Mulsunadi Gunawan (MG), President Director of PT Intertekno Grafika Sejati Marilya and President Director of PT Kindah Abadi Utama Roni Aidil.However, the investigation of this case had a polemic because the KPK was considered to have exceeded the authority of the TNI. Because Henri and Afri are still active members.
The KPK also apologized and confirmed that it would only investigate three suspects from the private sector. Meanwhile, Henri and Afri were worked on by POM TNI and have now been thrown into custody.
