Former Regent of Tanah Bumbu, Mardani Maming, was made a suspect by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) at the end of June 2022. Mardani, who is now the general treasurer of the Nahdlatul Ulama Executive Board (PBNU), quickly got help from this largest Islamic organization. In addition to being accompanied by a team of legal counsel from organizational aid agencies, Mardani was also accompanied by two interesting figures, Bambang Widjojanto and Denny Indrayana, a former commissioner of the KPK and a former deputy minister of Law and Human Rights, respectively. Mardani is challenging the KPK decision to named him a suspect in an ongoing pre-trial lawsuit and refused to be examined. On July 26, 2022, Mardani was officially on the fugitive list. What a mess.
