BANDAR LAMPUNG - Lampung Regional Police (Polda) revealed that the potential loss to the state due to alleged corruption in the procurement of inundated land in Trimulyo Village, Sekampung District, East Lampung Regency for the construction of the Margatiga Dam reached around Rp439 billion.

"The potential value of the state loss is based on the results of an audit of the total state payments of 1,438 and 306 inundation plots affected by the Margatiga Dam," said Head of Public Relations of the Lampung Police, Kombes Umi Fadilah Astutik, as reported by ANTARA, Saturday, October 21.

The audit was carried out in two stages, namely the first stage was carried out on 1,438 inundation plots of land, and based on the results of the examination of the Lampung Provincial Representative BPKP Number: PE.04.03/LHP-154/PW08/2/2023 dated May 11, 2023, there was the potential for overpayment as a result of planting, after determining the location.

After determining the location, he said, there was a mark up and a fictitious calculation of plants, buildings, ponds and fish in the land parcels at the construction of the Margatiga Dam which had not yet been released amounting to Rp425,397,437,600 from the proposal for compensation money before the audit amounted to Rp507,598,939,743.

In fact, he said, the amount worth paying as compensation is IDR 82,201,502,142.
