JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has handed over evidence and the suspect, former Director General of Regional Finance at the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) Mochamad Ardian Noervianto (MAN) to the prosecution so that the court hears this case.

Ardian is a suspected recipient in a bribery case related to the application for a 2021 National Economic Recovery (PEN) loan.

"Today, Phase II (submission of suspects and evidence) has been carried out with the suspect MAN from the investigative team on the prosecutor's team because from the results of the research to the examination of the case file by the prosecutor team, then it was declared complete," said Plt. KPK spokesman Ali Fikri was quoted by Antara, Tuesday, May 31.

Ali said that the suspect Ardian was still being detained by the team of prosecutors from May 31, 2022 to June 19, 2022 at the KPK Detention Center at the Red and White Building, Jakarta.

"To enter the trial stage, the prosecutor's team within 14 working days will immediately transfer the case file and indictment to the Corruption Court," he said.

Apart from Ardian, the KPK has also named two other suspects, namely the Head of the Muna Laode Regency Environmental Service M. Syukur Akbar (LMSA) as the recipient and the inactive East Kolaka Regent Andi Merya Nur (AMN) as the giver.

The KPK explained that the suspect Ardian had duties, among others, to carry out a form of direct government investment in the form of a 2021 PEN loan from the central government to the regional government through PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (SMI). The investment is in the form of program and/or activity loans in accordance with regional needs.

In March 2021, Andi Merya contacted Laode M. Syukur to help him get a PEN loan for East Kolaka Regency. In addition to contacting Laode M. Syukur, Andi Merya also asked LM Rusdianto Emba for help, who also knew the suspect Ardian well.

Furthermore, in May 2021, Laode M. Syukur brought Andi Merya together with Ardian at the Ministry of Home Affairs Building, Jakarta. Andy Merya applied for a PEN loan of Rp350 billion and asked Ardian to oversee and support the loan application process.

The KPK suspects that the suspect Ardian asked for compensation for his role by asking for a sum of money worth 3 percent of the value of the loan application. The details are 1 percent for the issuance of considerations from the Ministry of Home Affairs, 1 percent for the initial assessment from the Ministry of Finance, and 1 percent for the signing of a memorandum of understanding between PT SMI and the East Kolaka Regency Government.

Andi Merya fulfilled Ardian's wish and sent Rp2 billion to Laode M. Syukur's bank account. LM Rusdianto Emba was also aware of the giving of money as the initial stage of compensation.

The KPK suspects that the suspect Ardian received 131,000 Singapore dollars or equivalent to Rp. 1.5 billion. This money was given directly at his private home in Jakarta. Meanwhile, Laode M. Syukur received Rp500 million.

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) stated that Andi Merya's application for a PEN fund loan was approved by adding Ardian's initials to the final draft of the Minister of Home Affairs' letter to the Minister of Finance.
