The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) will report civil servants (PNS) to their superiors if they are absent when asked for information regarding the alleged corruption in the implementation of the Formula E racing event in DKI Jakarta. This step was taken because they wanted to complete the investigation.

"If government officials, (violators) of the state, do not come, we will report them to their superiors," said KPK Deputy Chair Alexander Marwata to reporters in Jakarta, Wednesday, December 21.

Meanwhile, the private sector could not take this step. The reason is that investigations at the level of investigation cannot be forced like during the investigation process.

So, there is not much the KPK can do. "Because it is still a volunteer," he said.

Previously, the anti-corruption commission confirmed that there were a number of difficulties related to the investigation into the alleged corruption in the implementation of Formula E. Among other things, they cannot do much when the related parties refuse to fulfill the investigator's summons.

As for the investigation of this electric car racing event, a number of parties have been questioned. Among them, DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan, who completed his tenure last October.

Apart from Anies, a number of parties have also been summoned for questioning. One of them, the Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edy Marsudi, admitted that he explained about the loan of Rp180 billion by the DKI Jakarta Dispora to pay the commitment fee to Formula E Operations (FEO).
