PAPUA - The Papua High Prosecutor's Office has not detained the Acting Regent Mimika JR and the Director of Asian One Air SH after being named suspects for alleged corruption in the procurement of aircraft and helicopters carried out by the Mimika Regency Transportation Service in 2015.
Kasi Penerangan Kejati Papua Aguswani mengatakan, penyidik tidak melakukan penahan karena kedua tersangka bersikap kooper dalam setiap pemanggilan untuk dimintai keterangan di Kejati Papua.
"However, we are still investigating this case and it is possible that there will be new suspects," he said in Jayapura, Antara, Friday, January 27.
According to Aguswani, his institution paid special attention to resolving the case so that as soon as possible it was transferred to the district court for corruption in Jayapura.

He explained that until now as many as 20 witnesses have been examined and investigators have pocketed two pieces of evidence to determine JR and SH as suspects in alleged corruption in the procurement of aircraft and helicopters.
Based on the results of the independent audit, it was revealed that the state losses in the case of the procurement of aircraft and helicopters were around Rp43 billion.
