REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has summoned PT Pertamina (Persero) president director Nicke Widyawati on Monday. She was about to be questioned as witness for former social affairs minister and Golkar Party politician Idrus Marham in alleged bribery case in Riau-1 coal-fired power plant (PLTU) construction project.

"Witness Nicke Widyawati is examined for her previous capacity in state electricity company PT PLN," KPK spokesperson Febri Diansyah said on Monday (Sept 3).

While serving in PT PLN, Nicke was known as director for strategic 1 procurement of PLN. Beside her, KPK also summoned three other witnesses for Idrus, namely CEO of Blackgold Natural Recourses Limited, Rickard Philip Cecil; director for strategic 2 procurement of PLN, Supangkat Iwan Santoso; and Head of Independent Power Producer (IPP) Unit PT PLN, M. Ahsin Sidqi.

Idrus allegedly knew and has taken part related to money that received by former deputy chairwoman of the Commission VII of the Parliament Eni Maulani Saragih when he served as acting Golkar Party general chairman in November to December 2017 and as social affairs minister. He also suspected played a role in encouraging the signing of Purchase Power Agreement (PPM) to buy and sell Riau-1 coal-fired power plant construction project.

In addition, Idrus allegedly has received a promise to get the same money as Eni, which was 1,5 million US dollar. He allegedly violated Article 12 letter a or Article 12 letter b or Article 11 Law No. 31/1999 as amended by Law No. 20/2001 on Eradication Corruption.

Eni allegedly received Rp6.25 billion from Johanes in stages. In the first stage, Eni received Rp4 billion at around November-December 2017. Meanwhile, in March-June 2018, she got Rp2.25 billion.

"The point is Eni always reports to Idrus and it also supported by Johanes' testimony," Deputy Chairman KPK Alex Marwata said in Ayer Island, Seribu Island, Jakarta, on Friday.

Part of Rp 2 billion money received by Eni from coorporation contract agreement for Riau-1 coal-fired power plant (PLTU) construction project was allegedly used for the Golkar Extraordinary National Conference (Munaslub) in mid-December 2017. Eni was the acting treasurer of the Munaslub, which confirmed the Minister of Industry Airlangga Hartarto as general chairman of Golkar to replace Setya Novanto.

Eni as alleged receiver of bribe is suspected of violating Article 12 letter a or Article 12 letter b or Article 11 Law No. 31/1999 as amended by Law No. 20/2001 on Eradication Corruption, also Article 64 paragraph (1) Criminal Code (KUHP). Meanwhile, Johanes as alleged bribe giver is suspected violated Article 5 paragraph 1 letter a or letter b or article 13 Law No. 31/1999 as amended by Law No. 20/2001 on Eradication Corruption, also Article 64  paragraph (1) Criminal Code (KUHP).
