JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) summoned the President Director of PT Santos Jaya Abadi Kopi Kapal Api, Soedomo Mergonoto today, Monday, May 22. He was summoned regarding the alleged receipt of gratuities by former Sidoarjo Regent Saiful Ilah.

"Located at the KPK's Red and White Building, the investigation team has scheduled witness examinations," said Head of the KPK News Section Ali Fikri to reporters, Monday, May 22.

In addition, investigators also scheduled an examination of the President Director of PT Indal Aluminum Industry, Alim Markus. The boss of PT Maspion Group is also a witness in the case that ensnared Saiful.

However, Ali has not detailed the investigation. The two people are suspected of knowing the alleged gratification received by Saiful.

The KPK previously again named Saiful as a suspect in the alleged receipt of gratuities. Even though he just breathed free air from the Class I Surabaya Prison in Porong, Sidoarjo in January 2022.

"The investigative team detained the suspect SI for the first 20 days," said KPK Deputy Chair Alexander Marwata at a press conference at the KPK's Red and White building, Kuningan Persada, South Jakarta, Tuesday, March 7.

Alexander said that Saifulah often received gifts in the form of money or goods. The gift was disguised as a birthday gift, Eid money, to a fee because he signed the trial for the transition of the gold court.

"Those who provide gratuities include private parties including ASN in the Sidoarjo Regency Government and BUMD Directors," he explained.

The technique of giving it, said Alexander, is usually done directly. Usually the currency used is the United States dollar and other foreign currencies.

Meanwhile, the goods received consisted of precious metal weighing 15 grams, luxury watches, bags, and cell phones. "The amount of gratuities received is around Rp. 15 billion," said Alexander.
