JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has demanded the cooperative attitude of former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming as promised by his legal counsel. His presence is awaited at the KPK's Red and White building on Thursday, July 28 tomorrow.

"(KPK, ed) is waiting for the suspect's cooperative attitude, as promised by his legal counsel who conveyed to the public that the suspect will be present at the KPK Red and White House on July 28, 2022," Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement Ali Fikri told reporters, Wednesday, July 27.

With Mardani's cooperation, continued Ali, the process of investigating allegations of bribery and gratification that ensnared him will be easier. Thus, this allegation can be quickly tested in the Corruption Court.

"The suspect's cooperative attitude will certainly facilitate and expedite the process of enforcing this law and let's test it together in a corruption court," he said.

"KPK will always convey the progress of each case handling process as a form of transparency as well as public involvement in eradicating corruption," Ali continued.

Mardani H. Maming filed a pretrial because he felt he was criminalized after being named a suspect in the alleged bribery and gratification of the mining business permit (IUP) in Tanah Bumbu, South Kalimantan.

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 once said to have received Rp 89 billion in money in a trial for alleged bribery of a mining business license (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.
