The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) believes that the inactive Central Mamberamo Regent Ricky Ham Pagawak still has many assets originating from bribes and gratuities. Investigators continue to search.

"Currently, the KPK continues to carry out tracing assets to find bigger assets, of course," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Tuesday, February 21.

Even so, Ali revealed that there were land assets for buildings, cars, and cash. The value reaches tens of billions of rupiah.

"In total, the value so far is only around Rp. 16 billion," he said.

Investigators are certain to continue to move. Moreover, said Ali, the number of bribes and gratuities that Ricky received reached hundreds of billions.

"This suspect from the results of bribes and gratuities enjoyed approximately Rp200 billion," said Ali.

As previously reported, Ricky has officially been a detainee at the Red and White KPK Detention Center since Monday, February 20 after being on the run since July 2022. The suspect in the alleged bribery, gratification and money laundering was arrested in Abepura, Jayapura on Sunday, February 19.

In this case, Ricky is suspected of receiving bribes and gratuities of up to Rp200 billion. This acceptance was made from contractors who wanted to get projects in Central Mamberamo Regency.

There are three contractors who are said to have given money, namely the Director of PT Solata Sukses Building, Marten Toding; President Director of PT Bina Karya Raya, Simon Mampang; and Director of PT Bumi Abadi Perkasa Jusiendra Pribadi Pampang.

In detail, Jusiendra got 18 work packages with a total value of Rp. 217.7 billion. Projects built include the construction of student dormitories in Jayapura.

While Simon got six packages worth Rp179.4 billion and Marten got three work packages with a value of Rp9.4 billion. This work was obtained by the three private sector after they agreed with Ricky to give money.

From that receipt, Ricky was then suspected of laundering money by spending it to disguise the proceeds of bribes and gratuities.
