JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) plans to ask businessman Hanan Supangat for Rp15 billion when examining him next week, Wednesday, March 20. The findings were obtained when investigators searched his house in the Kembangan area, West Jakarta.
Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri said the money found in rupiah denominations and foreign currencies needed to be investigated. The goal is to investigate the alleged money laundering crime (TPPU) that ensnared former Minister of Agriculture (Mentan) Syahrul Yasin Limpo.
"We are waiting for the presence of the person concerned, Mr. Hanan Supangkat, to confirm several things like yesterday during the search process, at least there was cash in rupiah and a foreign currency of 15 billion," Ali told reporters, Thursday, March 14.
"It became a part of being confirmed also to the witness," he continued.
Ali said investigators would actually ask Hanan about the money on Wednesday, March 13 yesterday. However, he was not present because he was sick and had sent a letter to the anti-corruption commission.
"The letter is currently being treated at the hospital, but I don't say the details because it is related to someone's illness or even the person concerned is sick," he said.
Previously reported, KPK investigators found tens of billions of rupiah in Hanan's house, which is the boss of PT Mulia Knitting Factory and former Chairman of the Ferrari Owners Club Indonesia (FOCI) during a search on Wednesday, March 6. Then, there were also several documents related to the Syahrul money laundering case at that time.
Hanan has also been examined by investigators as a witness on Friday, March 1. At that time, he was investigated about the communication made with Syahrul Yasin Limpo and the project at the Ministry of Agriculture.
This process was carried out after the anti-corruption commission developed the extortion and gratification case that ensnared Syahrul Yasin Limpo. This allegation is currently being tried.
In the case of extortion and gratification, Syahrul was charged with extortion of up to Rp44.5 billion in the 2020-2023 period. This action was carried out together with the Secretary General of the Ministry of Agriculture Kasdi Subagyono and the Director of Agricultural Equipment and Machinery of the Directorate General of Infrastructure and Facilities of the Ministry of Agriculture Muhammad Hatta.
This money was then used for the benefit of Syahrul's wife and family, invited gifts, the NasDem Party, religious events, aircraft charters to Umrah and sacrifices. Then, he was also charged with receiving gratuities of Rp40.6 M from January 2020 to October 2023.
