he Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) on Mondayquestioned graft convict and former Bank Indonesia (BI) senior deputy governorMiranda Goeltom as a witness in its investigation into the Bank Century graftcase.
Speaking to reporters after the questioning, Miranda said that she was asked about Budi Mulya, who has been named a suspect in the case.
The results of a recent audit handed over by Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) to the KPK had revealed that the state incurred losses of Rp 7.4 trillion in the case.
The disbursement of the short-term assistance (FPJP) from BI to Bank Century caused the state to lose Rp 689 billion, the agency said, adding that the central bank's decision to bail out the ailing Century had cost the state another Rp 6.76 trillion.
The KPK has named two suspects in the case: former BI deputy governors Budi Mulya and Siti Chalimah Fadjrijah. Budi was arrested on allegations that he accepted Rp 1 billion from a Bank Century official before the bailout. He was detained in early November.
