The investigation into the case of alleged corruption related to the tin trading system carried out in the Mining Business License (IUP) area owned by PT Timah Tbk (TINS) continues. The process initially started as an ordinary routine and we all know that the mining sector is prone to corruption. But, as the investigation went on and the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) finally found sufficient evidence, we learned that the scheme was supposedly created by the former President Director of PT Timah, Mochtar Riza Pahlevi Tabrani, his directors, and several other parties. That said, this is not an ordinary case. The case finally received attention after the AGO reportedly searched the residence of the controversial Helena Lim. This week, the AGO named the latest suspect, Harvey Moeis. Harvey is the missing link in the case and for some, this is a long-overdue announcement.

Meranti Islands Regent, Muhammad Adil, made headlines some time ago because of an argument with the Ministry of Finance. The case is interesting because Adil accused the Ministry of Finance of being filled with demons. However, when the Ministry of Finance is in the spotlight earlier in 2023, it turns out that Muhammad Adil isn’t exactly a good person either. Adil was found guilty of corruption by the end of 2023. We thought that the process would end with the decision, but apparently the KPK did not stop investigating. This week, the KPK named Adil as a suspect for allegedly receiving grafts and committed money laundering.
