REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) stated that they did not find any involvement and linkage of SOE Minister Erick Thohir in cases of alleged corruption in the Directorate General of Railways (DJKA) of the Ministry of Transportation (Kemenhub) and PT Angkutan Sungai, Lake, and Crossing (ASDP). The KPK said Erick's summons was not necessary either.

“Until now, no link between ET brothers in the DJKA and ASDP cases has been found,” KPK spokesperson Tessa Mahardhika said at the KPK White House, Jakarta, Friday (30/8/2024).

The KPK has also so far stated that there are no plans to summon Erick Thohir in connection with the investigation of the case. “To date, investigators do not feel that the information in question is necessary to reduce the elements of the DJKA case that is being dealt with. If there is, there will definitely be a summons,” he said.

Earlier, KPK revealed that PT ASDP Indonesia Ferry purchased a vessel that was not based on procurement specifications. The ship was purchased while under the auspices of PT Jembatan Nusantara.
