The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is investigating the alleged deposit of "fee" from the businessman to the former Head of the Makassar Customs and Excise Office, South Sulawesi, Andhi Pramono (AP).

This was investigated by investigators during an examination of two private parties, namely Rudi Hartono and Untung Sunardi. Both were questioned by investigators on Wednesday (16/8) at the KPK's Merah Putih building, South Jakarta.

"The two witnesses were present and their knowledge was investigated, among others, related to the alleged order of the suspect AP to require the private sector to deposit money in the form of a 'fee' because of the recommendation for access to illegal customs services," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri as reported by ANTARA, Friday, August 18.

However, Ali has not provided more detailed information about the findings of the anti-corruption agency investigation team from the examination of the witnesses.

In addition, he said, on the same examination schedule, KPK investigators also examined Notaries and Land Deed Making Officials (PPAT) Nuzmir Nazorie regarding assets belonging to Andhi Pramono.

"The witness was present and his knowledge was investigated, among others, related to the alleged ownership of assets in the form of land belonging to the suspect AP, which is in South Sumatra," he said.

The KPK has detained Andhi Pramono as a suspect in the alleged case of receiving gratuities and money laundering (TPPU). Andhi is suspected of using his position as a broker, facilitating entrepreneurs, and accepting gratuities as a reward.

As a broker, suspect Andhi allegedly connected interimportors to find logistical goods sent from Singapore and Malaysia, including heading to Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, and Cambodia.

From his recommendations and actions, the suspect Andhi allegedly received a sum of money as a form of payment ("fee").

The recommendations made and conveyed by the suspect Andhi are suspected of violating customs regulations, including entrepreneurs who have obtained export and import permits who are suspected of not being competent.

The strategy of Andhi to receive the payment is through money transfers to several bank accounts from his trusted parties who are import export entrepreneurs and customs service management.

The receipt of the gratuity is thought to have occurred in the 2012-2022 period, at which time Andhi occupied several positions ranging from civil servant investigators (PPNS) to echelon III officials at the Directorate General (Ditjen) of Customs and Excise of the Ministry of Finance with his final position as Head of the Makassar Customs and Excise Supervision and Service Office (KPPBC).

The suspect Andhi's alleged receipt of gratuities is still around Rp. 28 billion and further investigation is still being carried out. The money from the corruption was allegedly used by suspect Andhi for personal needs and his family.

Then, in the period of 2021 and 2022, Andhi is suspected of buying a diamond worth IDR 652 million, purchasing an insurance policy worth IDR 1 billion, and buying a house in the Pejaten area, South Jakarta, worth IDR 20 billion.

For his actions, the suspect Andhi Pramono was charged with Article 12B of Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Corruption, in conjunction with Article 55 paragraph (1) 1st of the Criminal Code.
