JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has asked the National Police for assistance in finding the former Tanah Bumbu Regent, Mardani H. Maming, who is now on the wanted list (DPO). He was declared a fugitive after he did not cooperate in responding to the investigator's summons and was unable to be picked up by force.
"KPK has also sent a letter to the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police asking for assistance in the arrest of the suspect in question," said Acting Spokesperson for the KPK for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, to reporters, Tuesday, July 26.
Not only that, the KPK also invites the public to report if they know of Mardani's whereabouts. They can contact the 198 call center or the nearest police station.
"The participation and support of the community in efforts to resolve this case is very much needed, because we all hope that the settlement of this case can be carried out quickly, effectively and efficiently," said Ali.
The KPK included Mardani in the DPO today, Tuesday, July 26. Previously, he was absent from the summons of investigators as a suspect twice.
When investigators visited his apartment in the Jakarta area, Mardani was also nowhere to be seen. So, investigators went home empty-handed.
Previously, Mardani was named a suspect after being prevented from going abroad by the Directorate General of Immigration at the request of the KPK. Before being named a suspect, he had also been questioned.
However, after being questioned, Mardani admitted that he was asked for information regarding his problem with the owner of PT Jhonlin Group Samsudin Andi Arsyad alias Haji Isam.
Even so, Maming's name was actually said to have received Rp 89 billion in money in the trial of the alleged bribery of mining business licenses (IUP) in Tanah Bumbu Regency which was held at the Tipikor Court, Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan (Kalsel).
This allegation was conveyed by the younger brother of former President Director of PT Prolindo Cipta Nusantara (PCN) Henry Soetio, Christian Soetio. At that time, Christian claimed to know that there was a flow of funds to the former Regent of Tanah Bumbu Mardani H Maming through PT Permata Abadi Raya (PAR) and PT Trans Surya Perkasa (TSP).
The money transfer has been going on since 2014. The amount of tens of billions of rupiah is referred to as the amount quoted based on PT PCN's financial statements.
