JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has confirmed that the summons of former Air Force Chief of Staff (KSAU) Agus Supriatna is in accordance with the legal basis. Agus Supriatna's statement is needed to investigate allegations of corruption in the procurement of the AW-101 Helicopter.

"We summon witnesses, of course, because there is a legal basis as a need for an investigation process so that the suspect's actions are clear," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Wednesday, September 14.

Agus' statement, he continued, will also be opened at trial later. The goal is to make light of the actions of the perpetrators in this case, namely the Director of PT Diratama Jaya Mandiri Irfan Kurnia Saleh or John Irfan Kenway.

Furthermore, Ali said the summons of Agus as a witness would be carried out on Thursday, September 15. He confirmed that the summons had been submitted properly.

"The investigative team has sent a second summons to witness Agus Supriatna," he said.

"We urge cooperative witnesses to attend because it is of course a legal obligation. The KPK believes that the witness as a good citizen will obey the summons as a witness by law enforcement," said Ali.

As previously reported, Agus was absent from the KPK's summons on Thursday, September 8. Through his attorney, Pahrozi, the former KSAU felt that the KPK had no right to summon him.

In this case, the Director of PT Diratama Jaya Mandiri Irfan Kurnia Saleh or John Irfan Kenway is a suspect in the alleged bribery in the procurement of the AW-101 helicopter. He was detained at the KPK Detention Center at the KPK's Merah Putih building.

The KPK suspects that Irfan as a private party is actively holding meetings with the Indonesian Air Force and committing a number of frauds.

Among other things, receiving a payment of 100 percent of the contract value. In fact, there are several types of work that do not match specifications such as not installing cargo doors and the number of seats on helicopters that are not appropriate.

For his actions, Irfan is suspected of violating Article 2 paragraph 1 or Article 3 of the Corruption Eradication Law (UU Tipikor) in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code.
