JAKARTA (Yosefardi) – The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has just seized more assets such as cars, houses, and cash money from graft suspect Fuad Amin Imron, the Speaker of the Bangkalan Legislative Council (DPRD), related to gas supply agreement bribery case implicating PT Media Karya Sentosa (MKS).
KPK’s Spokesperson Priharsa Nugraha revealed on Wednesday (Jan. 21) that Fuad Amin Imron’s assets seized by KPK are three cars, two houses in Surabaya (East Java), and Rp100 billion money from several banks.
Previously, KPK has already seized three cars and one motorcycle belonging to Fuad.
Fuad was caught red-handed by KPK’s investigators along with three other suspects in the case in a bribery transaction on Dec. 1, 2014, whereas KPK seized Rp700 million of bribe cash money from the transaction.
Soon after the arrest, Fuad has been dismissed from the membership of Prabowo Subianto’s Gerindra Party.
The transaction itself is allegedly related to gas supply agreement during Fuad’s term as Regent of Bangkalan in Madura, East Java.
KPK has summoned several high-profile names as witnesses in this case. They are, among others, former Energy Minister and SBY’s Democratic Party politician Jero Wacik and Commercial Manager of PT Pertamina EP Gunawan Saniskoro. (haryantosuharman@yosefardi.com)
