JAKARTA - Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif gave a response regarding the Daily Executive (Plh) of the Director General of Mineral and Coal (Dirjen Minerba) of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) M Idris Froyoto Sihite who did not fulfill the summons of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK).

Idris was summoned in connection with the corruption case in paying employee performance allowances at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

"The Secretary General is sick," said Arifin, who was met at the Gendung of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Friday, March 31.

However, Arifin encouraged Idris Froyoto Sihite to attend the next KPK summons for questioning.

"But he had to come. We don't know when (the next summons) will be. Yesterday it was sick," continued Arifin.

Previously, the Director of Investigation of the KPK Asep Guntur stated that Idris was planned to be summoned this week.

This summons was made because investigators found the key to Pakubuwono Apartment, Menteng during a search of his office.

Arifin Tasrif also confirmed the discovery of the key to Pakubuwono Apartment and asked the public to wait for the results of the KPK investigation regarding this matter.

"So in the media, what is there is that Plh has the key. Now he was taken to his apartment, then he was searched. But we'll wait because the key to the fight is not as the media has conveyed, it doesn't belong to the person concerned," concluded Arifin.

For information, the KPK is investigating allegations of corruption at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources which ensnared 10 people.

It is suspected that the allowance money was cut and entered into a private pocket.

The amount of money deducted has not been given in detail by the KPK. However, it is suspected that tens of billions of money were enjoyed by the perpetrators, including for operational costs to support the examination process of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK).

In investigating this allegation, investigators from the anti-corruption commission have conducted a search.

This enforcement activity continues to be carried out, including at the Office of the Directorate General of Mineral and Coal of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the Office of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources on Jalan Merdeka Selatan, to Pakubuwono Apartment, Menteng.
