Investigators of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) previously raided the former West Java governor’s house in Bandung in March and confiscated a Mercedes-Benz that was once owned by former president Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie.
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is planning to summons former popular West Java governor Ridwan Kamil of Golkar Party as a witness in their investigation into a botched procurement at publicly listed lender Bank BJB.
The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has searched the house of former West Java governor Ridwan Kamil, who has been out of the public limelight since losing the Jakarta gubernatorial race four months ago, as part of the agency’s probe into corruption at publicly listed lender Bank BJB.
Unsuccessful deputy gubernatorial candidate Suswono said that his running mate Ridwan Kamil would likely come to the ceremony to confirm Pramono Anung's victory in the Jakarta election on Thursday, according to the Jakarta General Elections Commission (KPU).
Jakarta’s presumptive governor-elect, Pramono Anung, has called for the camps of his two electoral opponents and the city’s voters to put their differences aside and reconcile, saying he would be willing to accommodate some of the campaign pledges of his rivals once he takes office.
Former West Java governor Ridwan Kamil admitted that he planned to challenge the election result at the Constitutional Court, but withdrew the plan after consulting with experts and leaders of political parties in the Onward Indonesia Coalition (KIM) that nominated him and his running mate Suswono.
A lawyer for Ridwan’s camp said his team had prepared 97 percent of the documents required for a challenge to the election results and was waiting for final approval from campaign team chief Ahmad Riza Patria to lodge the petition.
KPU Jakarta has announced the PDI-P candidate’s victory in the three-horse race, but the city’s denizens must still wait for a formal announcement of their new governor and deputy governor as rival KIM pair Ridwan-Suswono prepares to mount a challenge.
