JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) detained former President Director of PT Amarta Karya Persero, Catur Prabowo, today. He is a suspect in the alleged corruption case in the procurement of fictitious subcontractors for the 2018-2020 period.
"The investigative team detained the CP suspect for the first 20 days from 17 May 2023 to 5 June 2023," said KPK Deputy Chair Alexander Marwata at the KPK's Merah Putih building, South Jakarta, Wednesday, May 17.
Catur will inhabit the Red and White House branch of the KPK detention center. Investigators can extend the detention time if needed later.
In this case, the KPK said Catur asked the former Director of Finance of PT Amarta Karya Trisna Sutisna to prepare money for his personal interests in 2017. The request was then taken from a project carried out by PT Amarta Karya.
Not only that, Trisna also asked a number of PT Amarta Karya staff to make a business entity in the form of a CV as a subcontractor to realize the request for Chess. The fictitious company that was created was included in the project even though it did nothing
There are around 60 procurement projects that have been subcontracted fictitiously. The money obtained is then deposited in fictitious accounts, ATMs, and checks of business entities that were deliberately made to facilitate Catur's wishes.
