Taking bribes, the mayor of Bandung and the Plesiran family go to Thailand and buy LV shoes
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) suspects that the mayor of Bandung, West Java, and his family received free trips to Thailand using PT Sarana Mitra Adiguna's (SMA) budget.
Meanwhile, PT SMA is one of the companies implementing the CCTV procurement project and internet services for the Bandung Smart City program.
Apart from Yana and her family, the Head of the Bandung City Government (Pemkot) Transportation Service (Kadishub), Dadang Darmawan and Secretary of the Bandung City Transportation Agency, Khairul Rijal also took part in the trip.
"Around January 2023, Yana and her family, Dadang and Khairul Rijal also received facilities to Thailand using PT SMA's budget," said Deputy Chairperson of the KPK, Nurul Ghufron at a press conference at the KPK, Sunday (16/4/2023) early morning.
Apart from that, Ghufron also said that Yana allegedly received pocket money from the PT SMA Manager, Andreas Guntoro. The money was given through Khairul Rijal.
Yana then used the money to buy luxury goods which were later confiscated by the KPK as evidence of a sting operation (OTT).
"Yana Mulyana used the pocket money to buy a pair of Louis Vuitton brand shoes," said Ghufron.
Apart from that, the KPK also suspects that Dadan received money from Andreas through Khairul Rijal which was intended for preparations for the 2023 Eid.
The bribe was given because Dadang had ordered to change the payment terms for internet service work contracts worth IDR 2.5 billion from 3 terms to 4 terms.
"As initial evidence of receipt of money by Yana and Dadang through Khairul Rijal worth around IDR 924.6 million," said Ghufron.
In this case, the KPK has named 6 suspects, including Yana and Dadang.
Dadan and the Secretary of Transportation for the Bandung City Government with the initials Khairul Rijal will spend the first 20 days in detention at the Navy Military Police Command Headquarters (Puspomal).
