00:00The Corruption Prevention Commission has not yet sent a letter of appeal to the son of President Jokowi, Kaesang Pangarep, until last Monday, September 2, 2024.
00:14The KPK plans to call Kaesang to be asked about the suspicion of gratification of the use of private jet aircraft when he and his wife, Irina Gudono, visited the United States last month.
00:25The spokesman for the KPK, Tessa Mahardika, has not been able to confirm when the letter will be sent after former KPK Chairperson Alexander Marwata stated that it was difficult to find out the whereabouts of Kaesang.
00:38The suspicion of receiving gratification by Kaesang Pangarep arose at the end of August last year.
00:44The suspicion arose after Irina posted videos and photos on social media.
00:49The post showed that he and Kaesang were on a private jet to fly to the United States.
00:56Recently, it was reported that the private jet with the number N588SA used by Kaesang and Irina belongs to Sea Limited or also known as Sea Group.
01:05The company based in Singapore has a number of business units in Indonesia, such as the development company Daring Darena and the e-commerce company Shopee.
01:15The Secretary-General of the PSI, Raja Juli Antoni, did not want to assume about the suspicion of gratification involving the head of his party.
01:22He argued that the activities of Putra Bungsu Jokowi and his wife were personal matters.
01:27The head of the Presidential Secretariat, Heru Budi Hartono, also did not want to face this issue.
01:32He asked a question from a journalist to be answered by the spokesman of the state palace.
01:38The researcher of the Anti-Corruption Center of Gejemada University, Zainur Rahman, evaluated the steps of the KPK in clarifying Kaesang Pangarep.
01:47According to him, the KPK should immediately investigate the suspicion of gratification.
01:52According to Zainur, the KPK can immediately investigate the suspicion that has spread widely in the community without waiting for a report.
01:59Even though Kaesang is not a state emissary, according to him, the KPK can still pursue him.
02:04The reason is, according to Zainur, the practice of receiving gratification indirectly has already happened a lot.
02:10The recipients of gratification, according to him, can be family, colleagues, distant relatives, or others.
02:16The lecturer of the Faculty of Islam Communication Indonesia, Muzakir, evaluated that the KPK will not be able to process Kaesang if it is based on his position as not a state emissary and civil servant.
02:29However, according to him, the KPK will be able to process him if it finds a relationship between the granting of gratification and his family position as a state emissary.
02:39According to him, there are two possibilities in this case.
02:42First, Kaesang as a son of a state emissary asked for gratification because he took advantage of his father's influence.
02:48The second possibility, Kaesang received gratification without asking for it, but it should be suspected that it was related to his family position.
02:56In this second possibility, according to him, it is impossible for the party that gives gratification not to know who Kaesang's father and brother are.
03:03Therefore, he evaluated that the recipient must know if there is an important conflict.
03:07Muzakir stated that such legal constructions have been implemented by the KPK when Andi Zulkarnain Anwar Malarangeng, a.k.a. Joel Malarangeng, was arrested.
03:19Joel is the younger brother of Minister of Youth and Sports Andi Alfian Malarangeng, who is involved in the case of corruption of goods procurement for the development project of a national sports school training center in Bukit Hambalang, Bogor, West Java.
03:31Joel is accused of receiving Rp. 7 million from a number of parties involved in the project.
03:37The Jakarta Corruption Court sentenced him to 3.5 years in prison on July 6, 2017.
03:43Muzakir was acquitted, Joel is considered to have traded influence, because Andi Malarangeng is considered to have allowed their actions to be linked to the office affairs.
