KPK Summons ASDP Asset Manager Regarding Alleged Corruption Acquisition Of PT Jembatan Nusantara

JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned Greata Rachmadiningrum as Asset Manager of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero) today, Tuesday, December 17.

He will be questioned as a witness regarding allegations of corruption related to business cooperation (KSU) and the acquisition of PT Jembatan Nusantara by the state-owned company.

"The examination was carried out at the KPK's Red and White Building, Kuningan Persada," said KPK spokesman Tessa Mahardhika to reporters in a written statement, Tuesday, December 17.

In addition, investigators also summoned Fadila Wardhana, who is the Secretary of the Acquisition Team of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero). Tessa has not detailed the material of the two.

Previously reported, the KPK continues to investigate allegations of corruption related to business cooperation (KSU) and the acquisition of PT Jembatan Nusantara by PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero). Internal parties' involvement other than those who have been named as suspects continues to be investigated.

As for now, the anti-corruption commission has named four suspects even though it has not been officially announced. They are the main director of PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry (Persero), Ira Puspadewi; Harry MAC as Director of Planning and Development; Yusuf Hadi who serves as Director of Commercial and Services; and Adjie as the owner of PT Jembatan Nusantara.

This corruption case is said by the anti-corruption commission to cost the state up to Rp1.27 trillion and is still changing. Because, the calculation is still being carried out.

A VOI source said this loss arose because the acquisition process for PT Jembatan Nusantara did not comply with the regulations. Reporting from a number of reports, PT ASDP purchased PT Jembatan Nusantara in February 2022 with a value of IDR 1.3 trillion.

This state-owned company then controlled 100 percent of PT Jembatan Nusantara shares with 53 ships under management. "The process (in carrying out business cooperation and acquisition, ed) has no legal basis," he said.

"So all acquisition rules are violated," is still quoted from the same source.

In this case, the anti-corruption commission has confiscated 15 land and building assets from the owner of PT Jembatan Nusantara, Adjie. The value reaches hundreds of billions of rupiah and is in the Pondok Indah, Menteng, Bogor City, and Surabaya City areas.
