KPK clarification over dubious account satisfactory, PPATK

Tribunnews.comFinancial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (PPATK) spokesman Natsir Kongah says that the Corruption Eradication Commission’s (KPK) clarification of a dubious transaction report on one of its employees is satisfactory.

“Normatively speaking, we have handed our report on dubious transactions to the KPK and if the KPK considers the reports free of any indications of wrongdoing then it is clear to both of us. We have no case to build,” Natsir told The Jakarta Post on Thursday.

The statement was made in response to a KPK letter requesting that the PPATK explain why it had disclosed such information without prior coordination.

KPK spokesman Johan Budi earlier clarified that what was referred to as a dubious account owned by the PPATK was actually an employee’s account used to temporarily accommodate funds originating from graft case before the funds went to the state treasury.

“We have strictly monitored all activities related to this employee,” Johan said.
