The prosecutor's investigators have named as many as two suspects in the alleged corruption case of government capital participation in the Regional Public Company (Perusda) of West Sumbawa Regency, NTB.

Head of the West Sumbawa District Attorney's Office, Titin Herawati, revealed that the two suspects in this case had the initials SA, the Director of Perusda West Sumbawa for the 2016-2021 period and EK from the project implementing partners.

"So, investigators have pocketed at least two pieces of evidence, so from the results of the case title they have named both suspects," said Titin, quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, August 15.

One of the evidences, he explained, relates to the potential state losses in managing capital investment funds. The potential loss reached IDR 2.1 billion.

"The potential loss is likely to increase because the BPKP audit is still ongoing," he said.

Based on data pocketed by investigators, the company with the initials PAM belonging to suspect EK in 2016 received periodic capital participation from Perusda West Sumbawa amounting to Rp650 million.

Then, in 2017 there was a return on capital from EK's company with a total of IDR 450 million. Continued in 2018, PAM companies again received periodic capital participation of IDR 1.1 billion.

In 2020, the regional regulation was revealed to have borrowed from the PAM company amounting to Rp. 100 million.

"From the total capital participation between the regional regulation and PAM, there was a loss of Rp. 2.1 billion," he said.

By explaining this, Titin said that the prosecutor's investigators named both of them as suspects with the alleged provision of capital participation that was not in accordance with the provisions of the cooperation agreement.

"So, the capital is given first to PAM companies. Meanwhile, cooperation agreements are made far from the date the capital is given," he said.

In addition to the alleged error, it is strongly suspected that the PAM company did not carry out its obligations according to the cooperation agreement.

"So, there are indications that not all obligations are fulfilled by PAM companies. However, the director of the regional regulation continues to provide capital injections," he said.

With the construction of the results of such investigations, investigators named both of them as suspects by applying the allegations of Article 2 paragraph (1) and/or Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption as amended by Law no. 20 of 2001 in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code jo. Article 64 of the Criminal Code.

From the determination of the suspect, the prosecutor's investigator made the detention of SA by entrusting the person concerned at the West Sumbawa Police Detention Center.

"So, starting Monday night, SA officially underwent the detention of the prosecutor after being named a suspect along with EK. We are still trying to summon EK suspects properly," he said.
