upreme Audit Agency (BPK) auditors Rochmadi Saptogiri and Ali Sadli stood trial at the Jakarta Corruption Court on Wednesday for allegedly accepting bribes amounting to Rp 240 million (US$17,010) from Villages, Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration Ministry officials.
In addition to corruption, both auditors were charged with money laundering.
“Rochmadi allegedly laundered a total of Rp 3.5 billion,” Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) prosecutor Takdir Suhan told the court. He added that Ali had concealed Rp 10.5 billion and $80,000 through the purchase of various assets, including houses and luxury cars.
The KPK named Rochmadi and Ali, along with two ministry officials Sugito and Jarot Budi Prabowo, suspects in a bribery case pertaining to an effort to obtain an “unqualified” opinion — the highest audit level — for the ministry’s 2016 budget report.
