KAPUAS HULU - The District Prosecutor's Office (Kejari) of Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan, has confirmed that it is ready to take action against any possible person involved in the escape of corruption suspect Dendi Irawan from the Putussibau State Detention Center (Rutan).

"We urge Dendi Irawan to turn himself in. And all those who know of his whereabouts should report him immediately and hand him over," said Head of the Intelligence Section of the Kapuas Hulu District Attorney's Office, Adi Rahmanto, in Putussibau, Kapuas Hulu, Monday evening, April 11.

Dendi Irawan is a suspect in the corruption case in the construction of the Bunut Hilir Terminal which was entrusted by the Kapuas Hulu Kejari at the Class IIB Putussibau Rutan for further legal proceedings.

He said that the Kejari Kapuas Hulu was very disappointed with the incident of Dendi Irawan's escape from the Putussibau detention center.

He added, since the beginning of the corruption case process for the construction of the Bunut Hulu Terminal for the 2018 Fiscal Year, Dendi Irawan has not been cooperative. In fact, he was even listed on the People's Wanted List (DPO) since February 2022. However, on April 2, 2022, the Kapuas Hulu Kejari Intelligence Team managed to arrest Dendi Irawan and put him in the Putussibau detention center. However, on April 10, 2022, he escaped from the Putussibau Rutan.

"We received a notification letter from the head of the Putussibau detention center, Dendi Irawan, who fled on Sunday (10/4) at around 07.15 western Indonesia time," Adi said as quoted by Antara.

Adi stated that the prosecutor's office would not hesitate to follow up on anyone who might be involved in Dendi Irawan's escape.

"We ask anyone who knows the whereabouts of Dendi Irawan to immediately inform the Kejari Kapuas Hulu," he said.

He emphasized that if there were parties or persons involved, whether they only knew of their whereabouts but did not report let alone help the suspect escape or assist the suspect while on the run, Article 21 of the Corruption Crime Act (Tipikor) states that anyone who intentionally prevents, hinders, or thwart directly or indirectly the investigation, prosecution, and examination in court against suspects and defendants or witnesses in corruption cases, shall be punished with imprisonment for a minimum of three years and a maximum of 12 years and or a fine of at least IDR 150 million and a maximum of IDR 600 million.
